The city of Montreal was electric on Monday night as the Canadiens were the first team to punch their ticket to the third round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. Habs fans hope this Cinderella run won t end anytime soon. We were kind of the underdogs in the first round, and I think even going into the second round, but the boys are playing some tight hockey, said fan Paul Doyle.
