Our experts will tell you more about the latest performances in the betting tip, which also contains the most optimal bets

Command Analysis

Montreal Canadiens

Current form
Montreal continues to be in great shape, and the winning streak has already reached three matches in a row. A series of successful performances began away from Philadelphia, where the Canadians showed an excellent offensive game, consistently realizing their chances, which allowed them to win a confident victory with a score of 4:2. In particular, it is worth praising Suzuki and Hutson, who scored three goals each. Returning to the home arena, the team fought the Panthers again and this time pulled Victoria away with great difficulty in overtime (3:2). Once again, Hutson scored a hat-trick of assists.
The team was able to consolidate its success in a duel with Boston, taking advantage of the opponent's terrible form and defeating him with a score of 4:1. It is impossible not to mention the efforts of the defensive line, the Bruins scored only 19 shots in three periods. It is worth noting that Montreal picked up the pace very timely, as there is very little left until the end of the regular season, and the club's position in the playoff zone is very precarious.

Philadelphia Flyers

Current form
Philadelphia has been in terrible shape for a long time, and the losing streak has reached six matches. Nevertheless, the team was able to come to its senses and interrupted this long series of failures, defeating Montreal (6:4). The Flyers successfully took advantage of the home walls, realizing their attacking potential to the fullest, and in particular, it is worth praising the forwards Michkov and Couturier, who scored three assists each. Next, the team fought with Buffalo and again showed a great offensive game, defeating the opponent with a score of 7:4. This time, it's difficult to even single out any of the players, since almost all scored either an abandoned puck or an assist.
In the final match of the home series, the hooligans faced Nashville and with great difficulty pulled out Victoria in regular time with a difference of only one goal (2:1). Goalkeeper Fedotov made a big contribution to the success, reflecting 96% of shots. However, the points scored did not bring the club much closer to the playoff zone, and the gap from the eighth position is 10 points.

It's hard to believe that Montreal will miss the opportunity to score points in a duel with a clear outsider. The Canadiens have a great desire to take revenge on Philadelphia, which means they will give their best. The Flyers played a great game at home, but it is unlikely that the club will also be able to prove itself well away, where it rarely achieves success. We believe that the owners of the ice will take advantage of the opponent's weak game on the road and gain the upper hand, which we suggest betting on.
