MTL @ BUF 7:30PM Eastern
The ultimate game in the series, winner takes it all and plays Carolina on Thursday. The season, the previous series, the previous games, these things cannot inform us on the result tonight. However, there are some facts that can: Montreal has not lost two games in a row and they play a lot better on the road than at home.

BUF @ MTL 8PM Eastern
Montreal leads this series 3-2. Note the start time of 8PM. If you watched hockey in the 80s, that was a bit more common for the Saturday night games to start at 8PM. Since, we've mostly been used to 7PM starts, which was great. This has to be a nuisance for players, having to fret an hour more before getting on the ice and calming those nerves...
