In theory, the Montreal Canadiens still have a chance to make the playoffs. In practice, it is virtually impossible.

In fact, tonight, the Washington Capitals play the Buffalo Sabres and if the Caps go to overtime or win the game, it will officially be the end of the last Stanley Cup finalist team.

With the performances that Martin St-Louis' team has been giving us in the last few weeks, win or lose, they are exciting to watch!
