It’s well-known that the confrontations between Canadian teams in the NHL are normally full of emotion games due to the great quality that they frequently have within their squads, however next Saturday the game between Calgary Flames and Montreal Canadiens is definitely expected to be one of the less attractive games in the calendar due to the irregularity that both teams have shown throughout the season.

On the one hand, Calgary Flames have only been able to win 1 out of their last 5 games, and even though they’re just 1 point behind the playoffs’ mark, they aren’t really expected to qualify to the final instances due to their awful offensive line performance. In that regard, they’ve only been able to score 163 goals this season, currently remarking as the worst offensive line in the Pacific Division.

On the other hand, Montreal Canadiens are literally living the same situation than the Flames, as this team is actually just 1 point behind the playoffs’ mark but in the Eastern Conference. Nonetheless, despite having such a better offensive line with 186 goals scored, the Canadiens’ defensive line is far worse than the Flames, as they’ve conceded 207 goals, highlighting as the second worst in the Atlantic Division.
