Between the multiple NHL games to be played next Tuesday at 06:00 pm CST, the clash of Montreal Canadiens and Carolina Hurricanes is expected to be one of the most uneven due to the performance that these teams have had throughout the season. However, it must be noted that both teams had a short-term awful performance, so Carolina’s favoritism could be ephemeral.
Additionally, the fact that Montreal Canadiens defeated Ottawa Senators (2-5) during their most recent game, take them back to competition as they currently are just 5 points behind the Eastern Conference playoffs’ line. Nonetheless, they still are one of the worst defensive lines after conceding 196 goals this season, so there aren’t any positive expectations related to a possible recovery that could take them back to the playoffs’ spots.
In the meantime, Carolina Hurricanes have been one of the most irregular squads of the season, a fact that can be easily ratified when looking that they were only able to win 1 out of their last 5 games. With those numbers in mind, it wouldn’t be surprising if they are taken down from the top 4 of the Eastern Conference by New Jersey Devils, so this will be a must-win game for them.
