Prediction

The Canucks are having a great start of the season and have already beat some very tough teams like the Rangers or the Wild. They have won 3 games in a row and beat the Canadiens 3-0 at home last month. The Canadiens have lost 3 straight games and allowed an average of 4.3 goals per game on that strecht. The Canucks have lost only 1 game at home so far so it's hard to believe the Canadiens can pull out the upset. Take the Canucks.
