Montreal needs more from Kovalev and Koivu if they're going to make noise. Koivu looks like he has lost his confidence and Kovalev is just as big of a mystery as ever. I swear, if he wanted it half as bad as Koivu he would be the perfect player.

Price is still too young to be a starting goaltender and Huet back in net will calm the team down a bit. Carolina just has that building on lock down like Montreal does in Carolina. I have season tickets to the Hurricanes games and it's sad to see Carolina get beaten over and over by Montreal on home ice and then beat them on the road.
