Next Saturday night will bring a very interesting game in the NHL calendar between a pair of Canadian teams like Toronto Maple Leafs and Montreal Canadiens, a game which must be practically taken as a playoff game for Montreal as they need to keep pushing forward during the last games of the regular season to ensure their qualification for the playoffs.
With that in mind, Toronto Maple Leafs must also take this game very seriously as Montreal is a potential playoff opponent, so testing their offensive tactics against this kind of team will be very valuable for them. Additionally, it must be noted that Toronto is still on risk of losing the second spot of the Eastern Conference, so they’ll be forced to show all their offensive potential during their last 4 games of the regular season.
Meanwhile, Montreal Canadiens must immediately recover their focus after losing a streak of 6 victories in a row with their most recent loss against Ottawa Senators (5-2), a game that must be taken as an opportunity for improvement. Nonetheless, it must be noted that the last time that Montreal was able to defeat an already qualified team was 8 games ago when visiting Florida Panthers (2-4).
