Some had travelled from other parts of the province to be in the city, just in case the impossible happened. Jubilant fans raised orange traffic cones — the perennial symbol of a city almost always under construction — over their heads in lieu of the Stanley Cup.

A cop car was flipped over, more than a dozen people were arrested, and Montreal police fired tear gas to disperse the rowdiest in the crowd. It all felt very true to form. Now, as the finals get under way, the team still has a long way to go to get past the favourites, Tampa Bay Lightning. Aoueille, les boys. Les Habitants last won the Cup 28 years ago with a fantastic goalkeeper in Patrick Roy.

Carey Price looks to match the feat starting next week. The Montreal Canadiens are four wins away from being the first Canadian team to win the Stanley Cup since they did it in But the No. The year-old right wing scored 12 points four goals, eight assists in 20 games to lead all rookies in the playoffs. Suzuki demonstrated that the Canadiens' seemingly endless quest for a No. The year-old led them with 16 points seven goals, nine assists in 22 playoff games and it's not a stretch to see him and Caufield giving Montreal top level offensive production, and sooner than many may have projected.

The Canadiens are stronger through their top two defense pairs than they've been in some time. Weber and Ben Chiarot came together during the playoffs last season, and Joel Edmundson was a solid fit with Petry on the second pair.

Montreal general manager Marc Bergevin preaches the value of depth at the position and Alexander Romanov , 21, figures to contribute if he progresses in his development. We encourage you to review it carefully.
