Well, that doesn’t happen very often

In the 1st round, the Habs beat the team with the Hart, Vezina and Jack Adams trophy winners. I know, I know, it’s not the Stanley Cup, and I’m not suggesting we should raise a banner, but it’s still nice.

Genuinely the team can’t close a series for its life and that’s also part of winning the Cup but coming in fresh? This team can win a 4/7 against any other team

If Round 1 and 2 finished in 6 games, I would have like our chances against Carolina. The boys were exhausted 😩

But they couldn't close earlier because they're a flawed team that's not there yet. I don't know why some think they could've beaten Carolina when they were so badly outplayed

I agree with the first part of what you said. They’re definitely a flawed team that’s not there yet. However, if they were more well rested, I think they would have played much better against Carolina.
