The Montreal Canadiens are doubtful playoff entrants

The Montreal Canadiens return home tonight facing the Philadelphia Flyers, well on the outside, looking in in the race to make the NHL playoffs.

This glorious franchise, sans a title since 1993, got off to a great start this season.

As their woeful slump continued, one crack about the Canadiens a team with more titles than any but the New York Yankees in major North American sports’ leagues, surfaced.

“The Canadiens will be honoring the players from the hot start at the beginning of the season.”

Montreal won its back to back home games on Super Bowl weekend and another home tilt that followed.

However 3 subsequent road losses leaves Montreal in dire shape, as far as reaching the playoffs.
