Montreal Canadiens at Vegas Golden Knights Preview & Picks

Montreal are tipped to cover the line in Vegas.

The Golden Knights boast an almost flawless record so far, but they have been involved in a string of one-score games over the past several days.

  • 4 of Vegas’ last 6 games have been won by just one goal
  • Montreal Canadiens are 4-1 in their last 5 games
  • The Under has cashed in 4 of Vegas’ 5 home games so far
  • The Under hit in Montreal’s opening road game of the season

Head To Head

  • This is the first meeting between the two teams this season

Montreal Canadiens Form

Montreal head to ‘Sin City’ in good form, having won four of their last five games to improve to 5-2-1.

The Canadiens opened with a shootout loss in Toronto, but rebounded quickly to beat Chicago 3-2 in their home opener.

They then lost 5-2 to Minnesota on the home ice, only to issue an immediate response with a 3-2 overtime win against Washington, before travelling to Buffalo for a 3-1 win.

Montreal failed to make it three-in-a-row as they then lost 5-2 at home to New Jersey, but they again bounced back swiftly from a loss.

The Canadiens won a couple of narrow games to end last week, beating Columbus 4-3 in overtime before downing Winnipeg via a shootout.

Vegas Golden Knights Form

Defending champions Vegas take an almost flawless record into this game, having won eight of their first nine games.

The Golden Knights celebrated the raising of the championship banner with a 4-1 win against Seattle on opening night.

They then beat San Jose on the road and Anaheim at home by the same score, before edging Dallas via a shootout at the T-Mobile Arena.

Vegas continued to stack up wins on the road as they then recorded 5-3 wins at both Winnipeg and Chicago, and that was followed by a 3-2 home success against Philadelphia.

The Golden Knights’ perfect start was finally ended by a shock 4-3 overtime defeat to Chicago at home, but they bounced back immediately with a shootout win in Los Angeles.

Verdict

Vegas are stacking up wins, but their last few outings have been close affairs and that makes Montreal an appealing pick with 1.5 goals.
