Canadiens Ignite Unexpected Fury: Will Flames Finally Face Their Fiery Fate?

Canadiens Ignite Unexpected Fury: Will Flames Finally Face Their Fiery Fate?

The Canadiens enter tonight’s game with a strong 5-2-0 record on the ice, and they are even 2-1-0 on the road. Their offense has looked very good this season, averaging 3.57 goals per game. On defense, they have held opponents to just 2.86 goals per game, but they aren’t really outshouting opponents. Montreal is averaging just one more shot attempt per game than their opponent, which might signify that their shots are of better quality than their opponent’s. Although the team is 4-1 over their past five games, they haven’t exactly looked dominant. They needed to win two of the games in overtime. Three of the wins have been one-goal victories. Their one loss in the last five games was also by just one goal, so they’ve been consistent and competitive. Perhaps it is the mark of a good team to be winning the tight matchups, but it also could signify that they are not playing great, as none of the teams they’ve beaten by one goal are all that impressive (the Blackhawks, Kraken, and Predators). It is expected that Sam Montembeault is going to be in the net tonight. He is 2-2-0 for the season with a 3.26 goals against per game average and a .857 save percentage.
