Montreal Canadiens

Who would have predicted in mid-December that Montreal would go on an incredible run of nine wins in 11 games? They would have been called mad, but that's what has happened. The Canadiens are unbelievable, and you must credit Martin St. Louis for producing such results with minimal resources. Montreal is already close to the play-off zone here and in the Eastern Conference standings, sitting in tenth place with 43 points. They beat Washington 3-2 in extra time the day before.

Dallas Stars

Dallas started to look like themselves - eight games in a row with points and a six-game winning streak. That's the Stars we know! Peter Debura's side had a great game the day before, beating Philadelphia 4-1. There is no question about the overall standings in the West, as Dallas is fifth on 53 points and in the coveted top three.

Montreal's success is hard to believe. The Canadiens' progress is evident, and we credit them for that. But how long will this team last? Their current rival is Dallas, who has been flawless lately. The Stars have been piling up wins, and they won't let Canada off the hook. The Stars have also won the last five meetings at the Bell Centre. We expect them to do the same and pick the Texans to win.
