I'm Ryan Lambert from Elite Prospects.

I am Sean McAnew from The Athletic.

And I think it's fair to say, we got a freaking series on our hands.

We got one.

We really only have the one.

One for two, baby.

We'll talk about, hey, I'll take a coin flip, right?

Mm-hmm.

I guess how do you want to tackle this Carolina Montreal series?

Because there's a lot to talk about, but like, I don't know.

I'll put it this way.

I'm not seeing a lot of Montreal is going to win this series in this series.

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

Okay, so here's where I'm going to start. First of all, I'm at the point now after watching games two and three where I'm ready to kind of just disregard game one.

100%. Not even a question to me.

You know, Montreal won the game and you get a win, you need four.

That's one of them, et cetera.

But as far as using it to look ahead and project, I think that was what we all thought might

happen, which is the team that hadn't played in six years, was rusty.

They forgot how to play hockey.

They were holding the wrong end of their sticks and all that stuff.
