Montreal won the only meeting this season 3-2 in overtime in October and the Canadiens are getting good value in this matchup as Washington has lost four straight and they have won only 13 of 24 home games. The Capitals are second-to-last in the Metropolitan Division and Charlie Lindgren is confirmed for tonight's game with a 9-6-4 record. Sam Montembeault will be between the pipes for the Canadiens and he is 11-7-4 with a 3.10 goals-against average and a .905 save percenatge. Montembeault allowed eight goals on 30 shots in a 9-4 loss to Boston, but then he bounced back and stopped 43 of 46 shots in a 4-3 win over the New York Islanders. Washington has gone OVER three in a row and four of five and the Capitals have soared OVER four straight after allowing at least five goals their previous game. Take the Canadiens and the OVER.
