I don't think it's the real Habs fans that started this riot. It's some trouble makers who took profit of the celebrations in the streets to merge into the crown and started broking things. Some of the fans joined in and the whole thing degenerated from there. It's a real shame for the city :(

I also think the Habs got lucky. The Bruins could have won the round in 5 if they were a little more opportunist and if it weren't for the good job of the Habs defensemen and of the goaler.

If the Habs learned a lesson from that round, I say the Habs in 6. Otherwise, the Flyers could cause a surprise.

The weak point of the Flyers is the defense and the goalers. The Habs could use it rapidity to mystify the Flyers in their territory. The fact that Benoit Brière prefered the Flyers to the Habs last summer is another source of motivation for the Habs. Let him pay! :)

>What's up with the Habs and their fans whooping it up and rioting after a first round playoff in which they were expected to win! What's gonna happen if they do take the cup?
