As we have seen throughout this season, the Montreal Canadiens have had an uneven play, and it has cost them many games, and almost a playoff spot.

In the entire month of April, the Montreal Canadiens were not able to register any consecutive wins. However, they managed to get three in May, but that was quickly followed by a five-game losing streak.

Although the Canadiens have looked a lot better these last few games, it’s impossible to compare such a small sample to the rest of the season, which is mostly comprised of inconsistency.

On a positive note, now is the first time since January that the team has multiple days in a row to practice. Hopefully, it should be enough for them to get ready for the playoffs, and to beat the Toronto Maple Leafs, or at least, to have a good run.

Now, to understand why I think it’s possible for the Habs to have a more even play next season, let’s dive into why they have been so inconsistent this year.
