Toronto Maple Leafs

[Will]

I wouldn't be surprised to see a first Habs-Leafs series since 1979. They've come close a few times but never connected.

Yeah, in 2002 they would have met in the Conference Finals, but the Hurricanes beat the Canadiens in the 2nd round before beating the Maple Leafs in the conference finals (a defeat that still irks me)

Of course, in 1992-1993 the Leafs would have wiped the floor (so goes the theory) with the Habs in the Stanley Cup Final if Kerry Fraser had called the high-stick on Mr. Gretzky.
