SERIES NOTES:
Post-series assessment: The Boston Bruins swept the Montreal Canadiens 4-games-nil to win MLB/NBA/NHL best-of-7 playoff series 1056. With the series 1056 win, the Boston Bruins improve their best-of-7 NHL playoff series record to 39-43 overall (breaking a five-series losing streak) and 8-9 in the NHL Preliminary round. With the series 1056 loss, the Montreal Canadiens see their best-of-7 NHL playoff series record fall to 72-35 overall and 11-5 in the NHL Preliminary round. The four-game best-of-7 NHL playoff series sweep in series 1056 is the 12th achieved by the Boston Bruins, and the fifth suffered by the Montreal Canadiens. Series 1056 among MLB/NBA/NHL best-of-7 playoff series thus becomes the 23rd NHL Preliminary-round series, the 101st NHL series (all rounds), and the 177th MLB/NBA/NHL series (all rounds) to end in a four-game sweep.
Pre-series assessment: In the 2008-09 regular season, Boston finished 23 points ahead of Montreal. From 1939 through the 2008 NHL Finals, when NHL teams led their best-of-7 playoff series opponents by 23 regular-season points, they have posted a 7-3 (.700) best-of-7 series record in those series against those opponents. The last time that the Boston Bruins led a best-of-7 NHL playoff series opponent by 23 regular-season points was in the 1993 Preliminary round, in which they were swept by the Buffalo Sabres in MLB/NBA/NHL best-of-7 playoff series 626. MLB/NBA/NHL best-of-7 playoff series 1056 is the 107th best-of-7 playoff series for Montreal, and the 82nd for Boston. In best-of-7 playoff series, Montreal has a 72-34 series record, a 11-4 Prelim-round series record, and a 67-39 Game 1 record, while Boston has a 38-43 series record (with an active five-series losing streak), a 7-9 Prelim-round record, and a 40-41 Game 1 record. Series 1056 is the 26th best-of-7 meeting between Montreal and Boston (an MLB/NBA/NHL-high); Montreal won nineteen and Boston six of the first 25 such meetings.
