Here’s an excerpt from SI.com (Scott Wraight) NHL power rankings:
2. Montreal Canadiens (4-0-1)
It took them just three games to exact some sweet revenge. Montreal on Monday scored four third-period goals to stun the Flyers, who ousted the top-seeded Habs in the second round of last season’s playoffs. After beginning the new campaign with a tough shootout loss to the Sabres, Montreal has reeled off five straight wins behind strong goaltending from both Carey Price and Jaroslav Halak.
