NHL Power Rankings: Week 28

6. Montreal Canadiens


Record: 47-26-9
The Breakdown: No doubt about it, Price vs. Lundqvist will be an outstanding first-round battle. As I mentioned earlier, the Canadiens swept the season series 3-0-0 against the Rangers, outscoring New York 11-7. The Habs appear to have everything they need for a solid playoff run, including a high-caliber goalie in Carey Price. Since Claude Julien came on board, Price has made marked improvement, especially on the penalty kill. Carey's save percentage went from .852 to .929 under Julien. (Getty)
