Montreal at Vancouver

Vancouver leads the Western Conference but there are three teams trailing them by one point, so as we come down the stertch the importance of every game is crucial. Vancouver is 5-2 in their last seven games where they have put a lid on the net. The Canucks have allowed a stingy 11 goals in this stretch, and they have been tough at home where they have outscored opponents by 1.2 goals per game on the season. The Canadiens have shown little resitence as they are a woeful 6-18 in their last 24 games, and there will be no playoffs for the Habs this season. Vancouver has won four of the last five meetings, and don't look to be vulnerable here. Make the play on Vancouver.
