Next Friday will bring numerous inter-conference NHL games, the one between the Montreal Canadiens and the Vegas Golden Knights being one of the most attractive, as both teams are at high risk of getting out of the playoff spots in their respective conferences. In this matter, even though the bookies’ odds made the Golden Knights favorites, they currently are having a poor performance.
With this goal in mind, the Montreal Canadiens should try to take advantage of the good momentum they built after defeating the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Utah Mammoth, victories in which they were able to score four or more goals per game. Furthermore, it must be noted that the Canadiens currently are the second-best offense in the Atlantic Division with 76 goals scored.
Meanwhile, the Vegas Golden Knights have a three-game losing streak, during which they haven’t scored more than three goals per game. That lack of scoring productivity has directly impacted the Golden Knights’ performance throughout November; it is concerning that players like Jack Eichel and Ivan Barbashev haven’t been able to maintain a consistent scoring ratio this season.
