Habs: nearly 75% chance of making the playoffs

At the Montreal Canadiens’ annual golf tournament, the word that was echoing from all sides was “mix”.

Everyone, from Kent Hughes to Nick Suzuki, was talking about the goal of being in that famous “mix”, meaning seeing the playoffs from not too far away.

Well, in the end, that goal was not achieved, and we were lied to, because the Habs are not in the “mix”. The Habs are almost in the playoffs.

The goal of the “mix” was therefore exceeded, while never, ever would we have thought to see the Habs in the playoffs this season.

The Habs are really surprising everyone right now, including their fans, who still can’t believe that playoff fever has taken over the city of Montreal.

With another big win last night, in addition to the losses of the Rangers and the Blue Jackets, the Habs further improved their chances of making the playoffs.

This is the highest percentage of chances the Canadiens have had this season, and it could go even higher tonight with a win against the Nashville Predators.

If Martin St-Louis’ team were to get a fifth consecutive win tonight, the Habs’ chances of making the playoffs would rise to 84.97% (for a win in regulation time).

This will be another extremely important game for the Habs, because with a loss in regulation time, the Habs’ chances would drop to 61.91%.

The Habs must absolutely get at least one point tonight if they don’t want to drop their chances of making the playoffs.

With one point, the Habs would remain around 75%.

In short, it’s really a beautiful end to the season that the Canadiens are offering us right now, and the more time passes, the greater the chances are of seeing this beautiful end to the campaign continue with the playoffs.

This would really be quite a series.


Overtime

– It’s simply incredible.

– A whole series of events for the NHL.

– Impressive.

– Laval escaped in a shootout last night.

– The Rocket will be back in action tonight.
