The Montreal Canadiens upset the Washington Capitals in the first round of the playoffs last year, yet the Habs rank third in the most overrated category.

On the other hand the Capitals are in a situation that they have excelled in the regular season the past few years, but haven't made an impact in the playoffs.

Ditto for the Vancouver Canucks, which second in this poll. They need to get past the second round in order for their season to be considered a success.

What do you think? Join the discussion below.

Questions for the poll were written by Hockey Night in Canada and the National Hockey League Players' Association (NHLPA). The questions were circulated to players by the NHLPA. The responses were compiled by staff members of the NHLPA and forwarded to Hockey Night in Canada. 318 players responded to the questionnaire.
