As both teams head into the All Star Break, can the Jackets deliver a repeat performance against the Habs?
The Jackets can enter the All Star Break on a high note, despite still being in 30th place in a league of 30 teams. Winning two straight in two nights against a Montreal team that has had their number of late--and that is fighting for its playoff life--would certainly be a nice boost ahead of six days off. It would also put them back at hockey .500 since their 0-8-0 start (19-19-5).
Sometimes I look at a team like Montreal and I think: they should give Carey Price the MVP simply because of how completely disappointing his team has been without him.
