Columbus needs 1 point out of a possible 8 to make the Habs-Rangers a certainty. If the Habs got past the Rangers, which is no certain thing, the Habs could face the Leafs, who appear to be on a roll, have young legs, and could be a sleeper. But, not looking past the Rangers, who have struggled against Montreal, and also against Carey Price, Habs fans would do well to remember that Vigneault has beaten them before, albeit absent Carey Price, who Chris Kreider bumped into.The Rangers have a comparable record to the Habs, if not a little better, and they play in a significantly tougher division, with 4 teams over 100 points. Plus, the Rangers have an excellent road record. 

I think it will be a close series, and probably low scoring. For the Habs to prevail, they will need to score many more goals than Radulov has teeth.
