How Many Times Have the Bruins Eliminated the Canadiens From the Playoffs? When it comes to sports rivalries, very few can top the historical hatred between the Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens.

These division foes not only square off multiple times a season, they've faced each other over 30 times in the do-or-die Stanley Cup Playoffs where, unfortunately for Bruins fans, the Habs have had their way with the men in Black and Gold.

Montreal has eliminated the B's from the playoffs 24 times, but how many times have the B's eliminated the Habs from the playoffs? Submit your answer in the form to the right.

*****UPDATE*****
The answer is, eight times. The Bruins have eliminated the Canadiens from the playoffs eight times. They most recently eliminated the Habs from the 2009 playoffs.

For every NESN televised Bruins home game this season, NESN and The Four's will be teaming up to offer B's fans the chance at winning a $50 gift card to The Four's Restaurant and Sports Bar by simply answering a trivia question found at NESN.com/thefours. Questions will be posted at noon every afternoon on the day of a Bruins home game, unless otherwise noted.
