Vancouver at Montreal

Vancouver has plenty of talent and balance, ninth in the NHL in goals scored and 14th in goals allowed. Vancouver's Jannik Hansen has four goals and three assists over his last seven after scoring Saturday. Vancouver is 5-2 away against a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600. They head to mighty Montreal, but the Canadiens are starting to feel the effects of the loss of star goalie Carey Price. They are on a two-game skid, getting outscored 10-4. The Canadiens were routed 6-1 by Colorado on Saturday for their first regulation home loss. Mike Condon was pulled after two periods after permitting four goals on 11 shots. The rookie posted a 1.60 goals-against average while starting five straight times following Price's injury, but is off a 4-3 loss to Pittsburgh and the Colorado disaster. The Canadiens are just 3-8 against the Pacific Division, and Montreal lost to Vancouver last month in a 5-1 rout. Price allowed all five goals, including two from rookie Jared McCann. The Canucks also held Montreal's dangerous top line of Max Pacioretty, Tomas Plekanec, and Brendan Gallagher without a point, and the Canadiens are 2-5 after scoring two goals or less in their previous game.
