Montreal Canadiens vs Columbus Blue Jackets Prediction & Picks - NHL
by Edgar Jibran | in NHL Picks
Two of the worst teams in the NHL Eastern Conference will clash next Monday, December 23rd at 06:00 pm CST, when Columbus Blue Jackets receive Montreal Canadiens in a game in which the Blue Jackets are taken as the favorites to win. Nevertheless, the fact that Columbus has only won 1 out of their last 5 games will definitely put a big amount of pressure on them.
Even so, it’s relevant to note that Columbus Blue Jackets is one of the only 4 teams in the Metropolitan Division that have reached and surpassed the 110 goals line this season, but they’ve been defensively struggling throughout the whole season. In addition, it must be noted that the Blue Jackets won only 1 out of their last 5 games, so no real expectations of reaching playoffs’ spots are put on them.
In the meantime, Montreal Canadiens have currently shown some recovery during their most recent games after winning their last 3 games in a row, however it must be noted that 2 out of those 3 games were against the two worst teams in the Eastern Conference like Detroit Red Wings and Buffalo Sabres. With that in mind, Montreal isn’t expected to sustain their streak for longer.
