Montreal has struggled with injuries for a lot of the season, so the upcoming All-Star break will be much appreciated. The Habs are just 20-26 and they have allowed 13 goals over the last three games. Ottawa has won three-straight games and looks to close the first-half with another winner that could take them over the .500 mark going into the break. They have been better on the defensive end of late but prior to their last three games, they were allowing 36 goals in their previous eight, or 4.5 per contest. These teams have played high-scoring games in their last four meetings, accounting for 29 total goals or better than 7 per contest. I like the OVER in this one.
