It wasn't lol. Montreal was shit in 19-20 and shit in 21-22. 20-21? They were a shit team that wouldn't have made the playoffs under normal conferences. That's a fact. They then rode Price and Weber having probably the best hockey of their careers to the SCFs.
But I guess you gotta pretend they were a decent team to justify that they're easily the worst SCF team in the cap era, if not much longer.
Teams play better when their best players are available and they play their best. Amazing concept you got there.
