This is a battle for the top spot in the division and as such, I expect Montreal to break out of their three-game losing streak to maintain sole posession of first place. They've faced some stiff competition over the past games including road games in Detroit and Toronto. This team is still 11-7 at home, holding opponents to just 2.2 goals per game. In their 11 division games, they are 8-3, holding foes to just 1.6 goals per game. This season, they are 9-3 following a loss. I like the home team here.
