Can the Habs really regain their former glory and take the top spot in the Atlantic Division, moreover, can they do it against the red hot Washington Capitals?
Montreal is 3-2 in their last 5 games while Washington is 4-1, their lone loss in a shoot-out to the Coyotes, which snapped a six-game winning streak

Montreal Canadians
The Montreal Canadiens managed to pull out a 3 – 2 victory against the Columbus Blue Jackets the last time they stepped on the ice. However, in that win the Canadiens offense definitely were not the Canadians of old.
They converted 3 out of the 32 shots on goal. But, they had 2 power play chances, yet weren’t able to net a goal on either.
On the night Montreal received goals from Brendan Gallagher and Tomas Tatar in regulation, but it took a shootout to beat Columbus. It was a win, just not a pretty one.
Veteran Montreal netminder Carey Price made 33 saves against the Blue Jackets, but he has not won on the road since a 4-1 victory at Arizona on Oct. 30.

Washington Capitals
What can you say about the Capitals? They’re the powerhouse team of the season. Now they will be looking to extend their point streak to 14 games against Montreal.
In doing so, they would deny the visiting Canadiens from posting a third straight victory, and perhaps taking the top spot in the Atlantic Division from Boston.
So just how good are the Capitals? In their last game they faced off against the Philadelphia Flyers where they just managed a victory by a mark of 2 – 1. And like the Canadians against the Blue Jackets, this game also went to a shootout.
As well, they had 3 power play chances but couldn’t put one in the back of the net on all three.
Is Washington running out of steam already, or was it just an off night? It’s worth noting that Alex Ovechkin, while the team leader in goals at 13, has not added to that tally in his last three outings.
Free Montreal Canadians vs. Washington Capitals NHL Prediction:
It’s tempting to look at those long odds on Montreal and figure the Habs are due. But they are not the best road team, and backstopper Carey Price’s performance really gives one pause at 4.44 GAA since October 30th.
Montreal has surged, but even against weaker opponents they’ve struggled. It’s safer to assume Washington had an off night against Philly.
