The Canadiens are flying high after Sunday's 3-1 win over the Boston Bruins, as they swept the season series against Boston for the first time since 2008. The Habs looked dynamite all game, causing fits for a Bruins team that just seem to rage every time they play the Habs. More important than anything, the Bruins were one of the NHLest best teams of late, and the Habs stopped them cold. The Canadiens can play with the best of them, and they showed it again on Sunday. A fact made even more important as the Habs had blown recent games to Buffalo and Phoenix. 

PK Subban and Andrei Markov had a great game on the back end, as did Alexei Emelin, who always seems to save his best for Boston. Carey Price was, well, Carey Price. David Desharnais has awaked, with 7 points in his last 5 games, and Max Pacioretty continues his torrid scoring, as he potted his 24th of the season. However, the hottest Hab may be Dale Weise, who now has 5 pts in his last 3 games, and is beginning to look like more than the fourth-line cog many expected him to be when he was acquired by Marc Bergevin last year.

Which brings us to the question at hand: what will Bergevin do before the deadline? I still believe Bergevin is looking for two things: a top six forward, and a #3 defenceman. Jaromir Jagr could be a good fit up front, but I'm not sure he'd be a good fit given the game speed of the Habs. That said, I'd take Jagr in a heartbeat, and I believe the price would be right. I still feel Ryan O'Reilly would be a good addition if he were available, though he'd be expensive. As for help on defence, would Michalek out of Arizona be a fit, or perhaps Cody Franson in Toronto?

It's an exciting time to be a Habs fan, with the team performing as it is, and the deadline only three weeks away. Montreal takes on Philadelphia tomorrow.
