| The Canadiens are explosive, have the league's best power play and a rookie goalie playing with the poise of a veteran heading to the playoffs. It won't hurt Montreal to face a team it has beaten 11 straight times either. |
| 03/31/2008 | 4 | 5 |
| Obviously their coach doesn't believe in jinxes because he was happy to talk about how healthy his team has been this season. Then three key players went down within a week. |
| 03/24/2008 | 5 | 6 |
| In a season where losing streaks have been part of the norm for just about everyone, Montreal has maintained some impressive consistency by limiting its longest skid to three games. |
| 03/17/2008 | 6 | 8 |
| Everyone focuses on the goaltending and the power play here with some justification, which overshadows the critical role played by Alex Kovalev, who is arguably having the best and most complete season of his career. |
| 03/10/2008 | 8 | 3 |
| Carey Price has been rewarding the team’s faith in him for the most part, but Montreal has to tighten up the defense it’s playing around the goalie. Captain Saku Koivu has been picking up his pace lately too. |
| 03/03/2008 | 3 | 7 |
| They wanted to get an impact player but couldn't, so the Canadiens will have to go with an offense that responded to being kept together by scoring 11 goals in two games and capped off the week by beating Martin Brodeur and the Devils. |
| 02/25/2008 | 7 | 4 |
| Still looking for some home ice advantage because the Canadiens continue to look beatable in their own building. Overall, Montreal is only 14-12-5 at the Bell Centre. |
| 02/18/2008 | 4 | 10 |
| Carey Price is supposed to be the Canadiens' goalie of the future, but Montreal seems to have decided that the 20-year-old's time is now. |
| 02/11/2008 | 10 | 7 |
| The Habs had a chance to take over first place in their division and conference last week and crumbled. Montreal's goaltending might not be as good in the clutch as some would assume. |
| 02/04/2008 | 7 | 6 |
| Montreal is playing better at home since Jan. 1, going 5-2-2, so they can't let the stench of Sunday's debacle against the Rangers linger this week because first place in the division is in sight. |
