Montreal - Colorado: NHL match betting tip
Montreal will return to the home arena on March 23 after an unsuccessful away series and now, with the support of the fans, will try to regain the lost points. This time, the team will face the clear favorite in Colorado. What kind of bets should I choose? You will find the answer in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Montreal Canadiens
CanadaCurrent form
Montreal showed excellent results, playing in the home arena, where it coped with fairly serious opponents without any problems. The Canadiens hosted Florida in the first match and were able to show a fairly reliable defensive game, allowing the opponent to score only one goal and gaining the upper hand with a score of 3:1. It is impossible not to mention the efforts of goalkeeper Montembo, who reflected 95% of shots. The team was able to consolidate its success in a duel with Ottawa, leaving the opponent no chance of winning, defeating him with a score of 6:3. The most productive was striker Dvorak, who scored a goal and provided three assists.
However, the team failed to continue its winning streak on the road. The Islanders had problems with the implementation of attacking chances, which were plentiful, which eventually led to an offensive defeat in overtime (3:4). This time, goalkeeper Montembo turned out to be far from as reliable. Nevertheless, thanks to their form, the Canadiens were finally able to enter the playoff zone and now occupy the eighth place in the Eastern Conference table.
Disqualifications and injuries
Dakh, Gule and Price continue to remain in the infirmary.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Montreal concedes 3.3 goals per match.
- The Canadiens receive an average of nine penalty minutes per game.
Colorado Avalanche
USACurrent form
Colorado continues its away series, which did not start very well. In the first match, the team faced an opponent of their own level, in the person of Toronto, and throughout the match they created serious pressure on the Maple Leafs, but a huge number of chances remained unfulfilled, which led to a defeat with a score of 1:2. It is also worth noting that the Avalanche played poorly in unequal squads, first allowing the leaves to realize numerical superiority, and then they had to skip altogether, playing in the majority, which was the main reason for the failure.
Next, the avalanches went to visit Ottawa, where they fully rehabilitated themselves in front of the fans, defeating the Senator with a score of 5:1. It is difficult to even single out any of the players, as many have distinguished themselves by their effective actions. The defensive line played well, allowing the Senator to land only 16 shots. Colorado currently occupies the fourth place in the Eastern Conference table, but it is worth noting that the gap from the second position is only three points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Landeskug, Munson and Pullman will definitely not be able to participate in the upcoming match.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Colorado scores 3.34 goals per game.
- Avalanche completed 24.6% of the majority attempts

1.70There is no goalbetin each period.
In three face-to-face matches out of five, the teams failed to score a goal in each period.
2.55Tip and bets
Colorado is the clear favorite in the upcoming match, as the team surpasses its competitor in many ways. Still, it's worth considering that Montreal has recently gained excellent form, which allows it to consistently earn points. At home, the Canadiens are showing their best side, where they have not lost for five consecutive matches. We believe that the owners of the ice, with the support of their stands, are quite capable of giving a worthy rebuff even to the Avalanche, which we propose to bet on.
Our prediction is that Montreal will win with a handicap of (+1) puck in 1.77
Bet on the total
Also, in the upcoming match, it is quite possible to expect a large number of abandoned goals. Montreal has been very active in attack lately and is trying to realize its attacking potential in every meeting, which can also be said about Colorado. It is unlikely that the clubs will sit on the defensive, which means that we choose the total more as the second bet.
Betting Tip - total more than 5.5 goals in 1.70
Betting on the outcome of the first period
Montreal, playing at home, shows an excellent game at the start of the match and rarely allows its opponents to gain an advantage at the end of the first period.
Betting Tip - Montreal will not lose in the first period for 1.50
