Right into it today
Scott: The Canes again kept the Habs shot count low outshooting them 38-13. This was the first time the Canadiens lost 2 in a row during these playoffs.
With game 4 still in Montreal I’d expect the Habs to find a way to get more shots on goal and try to even the series up or they face heading to Carolina with the series on the brink. Two overtimes in a row so not picking a winner. He has been quiet over the last 2 games but he did have 3 points over the 3 games before and has 10 points in the 17 games this postseason so he’s due. Newhook to get at least a point
Graeme: Although Game 1 is looking like a bit of an anomaly, it has been two overall tight games and the Habs aren’t out yet.
I think they can take this one and take it to Carolina where they won’t fear as they have been solid on road.
Based on the odds I’m gonna go with Habs win incl OT at about 2.25
Habs went 24 min without a shot which is very concerning although if offside review didn’t exist (hate the replay thing for that) Habs would have likely won 3-2 . Really tough call tonight.
Really a hard one to Call.
But Will go for canes to force a match ball. The shot stats are what I’m leaning on here. 26-12 and 39-13 tells a lot on the chances I Think. Question of how many times Habs are lucky enough. Think their luck Will wear of at some point.
Main Bet Canes inkl OT.
Canes reg and -1 (small Bet)
Good luck and lets go Puckline season! 🥳🥳
