There are few things better than watching the Boston Bruins shut out the Montreal Canadiens in the Stanley Cup playoffs - and doing it to cap a four-game sweep to boot.
In fact, Andy Moog's shutout of the Habs in Game 4 of the Adams Division Finals on May 9, 1992, may be one of the most satisfying B's victories over their archrivals. The battle in goal between Moog and Montreal's Patrick Roy was one for the ages, but Moog and Boston's offense prevailed in a 2-0 shutout of the Canadiens.

This was the first time the B's had swept the Canadiens in a best-of-seven playoff series and it couldn't have ended any better. Moog stopped 26 shots in the finale and posted a .922 save percentage in the series.
Of course, this wasn't the last time the Bruins shut out the Canadiens in the playoffs. A four-game B's sweep happened again in the 2009 East quarterfinals. Boston has actually seemed to have Montreal's number the past few seasons.
Although the B's swept the Habs in the division finals, the Pittsburgh Penguins swept Boston in the conference finals to move on to the Stanley Cup Finals. Moog was... not great in that series, posting a .830 save percentage.
Even though they lost in the conference finals, the sweep of the Canadiens will never be forgotten.
