The Canadiens have won the last 7 games and 9 of their last 10 against PHX. They haven’t lost at home to PHX since 1996! where they lost in OT. In fact, the Canadiens straight up dominate the Phoenix/Winnipeg franchise with an overall record of 41-12-9-0, an outstanding .734 winning percentage which is their best winning percentage against any current NHL team over their 100 year history.
Price, who is making his 8 straight start is coming off of a shutout against Ottawa and is looking to continue his dominance against Phoenix, where he is 3-0-0 with a miniscule 1.67 GAA.
There’s not much upside on the Phoenix side tonight. They are coming off a loss on Saturday. They are 2-2-2 for the season, and are the 5th worst team in the league. On top of that, they are 1-1-2 on the road and as mentioned before are awful in Montreal. They are tied for last place (NJ) for goals scored at 15, only 2.5 a game.
At the moment, Montreal is getting good value at being only –120 and is actually down from the opening line of –140. Given the history, and the records, Montreal at home at that value doesn’t make much sense and is ripe for the picking.
Am I off here? Thoughts?
