They were on a roll out of the gate last season but it came to a stop after the all star break. They where just trying to make it into the playoffs and when they just made it the first team the faced just rolled over them. With some key aditions in the off season they look to not make the same mistake twice.
They are middle age for hockey at forward. Alexei Kovalev was the point leader with 69 points and lead team in goals with 26. Maxim Lapierre lead forwards in plus minus with a plus 9.
They are middle age at defense also. Andrei Markov was the point leader on defense with 64 and the assist leader of team with 52. Josh Gorges lead the defense in plus minus with plus 12.
Carey Price will be looked to in the net again as the number one. Even with the Montreal fans picking on him late in the season and playoffs. The orginization has faith the kid can turn things around and rise up and play better this year. They definitely look like a playoff bound team this season.
