Playoff buzz is in the air tonight at Montreal in a game that likely trades in a tight window.. The Sens have been flying since the 4 Nations break and hit Bell Centre tonight having won six in a row. A lot of that due to Linus Ullmark, who is 6-0-1 in goal this month with .913 saves as Ottawa's sold defense has allowed only 14 goals in the win streak. Meanwhile, the Canadiens returned home from a Western Conference road trip and proceeded to douse the Panthers, 3-1, as Sam Montembeault stopped 21 shots in goal. Montembeault has also won six of his last seven starts and has a 2.20 GAA and .926 saves in March. Hot goalies suggest lower scoring! Play Senators-Canadiens Under

The Montreal Canadiens have won seven of their last 10 games despite getting outshot in seven of those games, including three in a row, 88-67. Ottawa has won six in a row while outshooting five teams. The Senators are ranked 15th in shots against and have a +82 shot differential. Montreal is ranked 23rd in shots against and owns a -209 shot differential. Ottawa is ranked 13th (+2.6%) in scoring changes, while Montreal is ranked 26th (-4.4%). The Senators are ranked 17th in xGD (expected goal differential), while the Canadiens are ranked 28th. I like Ottawa playing with double revenge against bitter rival Canadiens, who just defeated the Stanley Cup Champions on Saturday. Since January 1, NHL teams are 2-8 after defeating Florida.
