Montreal is the obvious underdog, but the Canadiens are always dangerous with Carey Price in net. Not only does he have a ton of experience, but he's coming off a shutout of Pittsburgh on Friday. He also allowed a total of only seven goals while the Canadiens beat the Penguins three games to one. Price owns a 2.79 goals-against average on the season, and he has been hot against the Flyers with a 1.98 GAA and a .952 save percentage in two starts in 2019-20. Philadelphia goalie Carter Hart also enjoyed a good week in the round-robin series, but the Flyers have won only five of their last seven conference quarterfinal games, and they have lost six of their last eight playoff games as favorites. Take the Canadiens on the puckline.
