Montreal continues the home series, which began as successfully as possible. In the opening match, the team fought the Islanders and did not give the opponent a single chance, defeating with a score of 7:3. The three attacks of the first link played unrealistically, gaining a total of as many as 13 effective actions. Next, the Canadiens hosted a much more serious opponent in the person of Carolina, gaining the upper hand with a three-goal difference (5:2). This time, goalkeeper Dobes became the main star of the match, reflecting 41 shots out of 43. Thanks to stable scoring, the team continues to remain on the fourth line in the Eastern Conference table.
Columbus has been in great shape for a very long period of time, which allows the team to consistently earn points. A large number of victories allowed the club to rise to the playoff zone and gain a foothold there. He is currently on the sixth line in the Eastern Conference table, with 87 points. In a recent duel with the Islanders, the team unexpectedly suffered a dry defeat (0:1), although before that they often smashed their competitors. As expected, the Blue Jackets immediately rehabilitated themselves in front of the fans, snatching Victoria from Philadelphia in regular time (3:2).
It is not easy to determine the winner in the upcoming match, as both teams are in excellent shape and consistently delight the fans with successful results. Nevertheless, it is worth noting that Columbus has been having difficulties too often lately, especially with the implementation of attacking chances, so you should not expect a confident game on the road from the club. The Canadiens, in turn, smash both rivals of their level and favorites, which means it's worth betting in their favor.
