Shane’s Free Pick
Montreal is only averaging 2.67 goals per game, and their offense is going to really struggle again in this game. This Avalanche’s offense hasn’t been as strong as years past, though, and they aren’t going to exactly go run up the score either. This game is going to be lower scoring and the under is going to cash.
