Bulldozing like "Broad Street Bullies" Part 2?

Philadelphia has outplayed Montreal,in three of four games,shutting out,and down Montreal... Montreal has played Washington,and Pittsburgh,both in seven games,and shut down their top guns,in process(Ovechkin,and Crosby,respectfully),but their goaltender(Halak)has played spectacularly,most of playoffs.... Philadelphia,has played New Jersey,and Martin Brodeur,and Boston,in the playoffs... playing like the "Broad Street Bullies" of old,they have bulldozed their way into conference finals,and coming back from a 0-3 deficit,against Boston(becoming the third team in NHL history,to do so),they seem to be a team of destiny... matching three shutouts that J.S. Giguere,had against Minnesota,for Anaheim,in 2003,Leighton has played very well,and Philadelphia has played great defense in front of him... game five is tonight... can Montreal come back? yes,but in Philadelphia,it will be tough,but in my own opinion,Halak needs to steal a game,and force a game six in Montreal.... the 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs,and the 1975 New York Islanders are the other two teams to come back from a 0-3 deficit to win a seven game series(1942 Toronto Maple Leafs,won Stanley Cup,against Detroit),and the 1975 New York Islanders,almost did it twice,in 1975,losing to Philadelphia,after again going down 0-3,and forcing a seventh game,before losing,to the "Broad Street Bullies", who won back to back in the 1970's...
