Champion de la Coupe plus probable dans l’Est : Canadiens ou Sénateurs ?
Qui a une meilleure chance de hisser la Coupe Stanley depuis l’Est entre les Canadiens et les Sénateurs ? Marc Denis rejoint Domino’s That’s Hockey pour partager son choix.
Honestly I think people are overthinking this. It’s not that Ottawa is clearly better than Montreal, it’s more about perception and matchups. Montreal might actually have better depth top to bottom, but if they have to go through a team like Tampa early, that scares people more than Ottawa potentially facing Carolina. Add in the Brady Tkachuk Olympic gold and the whole “built for playoffs” narrative, and it just tilts opinions. Feels like fans are leaning more on storylines and vibes than actually comparing the full rosters.
Writing off the Sens who have played playoff style hockey since the Olympic break is wrong. They are 23-8-5 since January 12th. Montreal are a good team for playing in the season but stats wise are one of the weaker teams for playoff hockey.
Marc Denis just follows the Habs his take is kind of Bias. It cause to the game. If you think MTL and OTT are closer then what people think Ottawa had more regulation wins MTL won more in overtime and shoot outs, 3 on 3 and shoot outs don't exist from now one. Ottawa made the playoffs with bad goaltending 29th or 30th, Tampa and Carolina are both favourite. Tampa has the best goalie in the EAST after Boston with Swayman. Should be fun and stressful series for every fan base!
The only reason that Ottawa could go further is bacause they'd get an easier path against Metropolitan division teams, Carolina being the only threat for them while The habs have Tampa and Buffalo on their bracket. It would be amazing playing 4 home games against Ottawa thou.
Sens have a much better defense, and we all know what wins championships. They also have much better depth. Stats show that Caufield has been shut down by Pinto too.
maybe dont pick jean francois quebec to talk about which team he thinks has a better chance of going to the cup between the quebec team and the english team.

Habs are going out in the first round if they play Buffalo.

Habs will bury the Sens
Montreal is clearly the better team, I dont even understand how this is an argument.
Tsn is so stupid. Way too early to begin discussing. Wait until the final 4 has been decided . They both can be eliminated in round 1
I wouldn't pick either of these teams to win the Cup, but the Habs are so much better than the Sens it's not even funny.
Would love for Habs to win the cup. One of the original teams would be amazing
can you remove the gambling degeneracy from sports commentary ?

Not even close, it's the habs by far
You're basically jinxing both teams, seriously, what is wrong with you
SENS. Habs are like the kids from the Mickey Mouse Club. The Mickey Mouse Habs. Playoffs are for men.
Go Habs Go!
Lol😂

Hab's all the way they are battle tested.
You're not gonna believe what team he played for…

Sens have tons of gamebreakers too. Stutzle, batherson, tkachuk, cozens. Then Sanderson on one line and Chabot on 2nd both driving play.
Nice a Francophone talking bout Mtl hahah
Go Sens Go!!!
Lmao 😂 Habs are garbage. Watch dobes choke.
playoff hockey is not regular season hockey..not even close..so nobody on no team has a clue about anything yet in this division lol
She should have just asked an actual Habs jersey what it thought.
Doesn't surprise me you choose the Habs over the Sens lmao.
Habs will destroy the whole east they are literally on 🔥
To say Montreal is more balanced is crazy. They live and die off that first line. If that line gets shutdown it's over.
Only TSN would even suggest the Sens have a better chance than the Habs.
lets go to the former Montreal Canadien born in Quebec who now works for RDS…..wonder what he will think
Asking a former Habs what they think about the Habs is soooo insightful
No Canadian team is a Cup contender.
Sens have a much better defense, and we all know what wins championships. They also have much better depth. Stats show that Caufield has been shut down by Pinto too.
