Montreal has won two of its past three games and appear to be getting back on track after changing coaches. They destroyed Winnipeg 7-1 on Saturday as Brendan Gallagher scored twice in a four-goal second period, and Carey Price had 28 saves. Price is 7-4-3 with a 2.83 goals-against average on the season and he has won his past two starts while allowing two goals. He also won his last start against the Canucks, 6-2 on Feb. 1. Vancouver comes off two wins over Toronto, but the Canucks still have lost five of their past eight games and the Canadiens have beaten them four times in a row. Montreal is 20-6 the past 26 meetings, including 6-1 at Vancouver. The Canucks are 4-9 playing with one day of rest. Take the Canadiens.
