In the playoffs, anything goes when it comes to throwing the opponent off their game. Right?

Martin Matte trolled the Lightning in a commercial with Maxi, and the result is downright hilarious.

But… it doesn't stop there either.

The Canadiens are in the playoffs, which is grabbing everyone's attention… and knowing that local companies and brands are getting involved in their own way to cheer on the Montreal team is something special.

We all want the same thing, after all. Everyone would love to see the Habs go all the way and lift that precious trophy for the first time in over 30 years! 

It remains to be seen, however, whether this support will have an impact on the team's performance on the ice. Because tonight is, after all, the most important game of the Montreal Canadiens' season.

This statistic doesn't lie: 80.1% of teams that have won Game 5 of their series when the series is tied 2-2 have gone on to advance to the next round of the playoffs in NHL history.

It's do or die (or almost) for the Habs tonight:


In a nutshell

– Yeah!

– Reminder: It's silly, but the Rocket starts its playoffs tonight.

– Go, Slaf.

– It's going to be wild.
