Two teams off to a flying start will test each other tonight as the 2-0 Montreal Canadiens come to visit the 2-0 Calgary Flames. The Flames dropped just 10 games at home last year and dumped Vancouver in their opener 5-3. The Canadiens skated even in their first two on the road vs. Buffalo and Toronto, but managed to find the net in OT in both games for the wins. They will surely be tested tonight as they finished last season at 0-7 against teams with a winning record, and this being their third straight on the road won't help. The Flames are enjoying a couple of days off, where they came back strong a year ago to go 16-6, and as a favorite of -151 to -200, they have come away with the win in 46 of their last 64, or 72% of the time. I like them to move to 3-0 here and hand the Canadiens their first setback.
