The Montreal Canadiens are the cream of the Eastern Conference crop this year and sportsbook oddsmakers currently have the Montreal Canadiens as 110-moneyline favorites versus the Sabres, while the game's total is sitting at 6 which is quite high for an Over/Under total. Montreal sits one point out of first place in the Eastern Conference and is 7-2-1 in their last 10 NHL money line betting games. This is large part due to their head coach Guy Carbonneau who is a shoe in for the coach of the year this and the Jake Adams trophy. He has been about to make the Habs play as one and with his rookie goalie Carey Price and he has unity the locker room but bring the very talented Alex Kovalev to play hard and up to his potential. He was always known as the most skilled practicing player in the NHL but he has used he skills and talent but combining a hard work ethic.

This is a great NHL parlay bet to make as the Sabres have not played hat well and especially goalie Ryan Miller is 2-2-0 with a 3.95 GAA and a .842 save percentage in last 4 games played. The Sabres are on the outside looking in and are fighting for a playoff race and have not played well as a team while the Habs are the best team in the East right now. Andrei Kostitsyn, Alex Kovalev, Andrei Markov, Mark Streit, Maxim Lapierre,  and Michael Ryder are playing well and are playing within Carbonneau’s system. Betting wise this total set by most online sportsbooks is 6 which I think is high considering how well both Canadiens goalies are playing. Jaroslav Halak is 1-0-1, 1.44, .948 in his last 2 games played and Carey Price is 5-2-0, 2.40, .931 in his last 7 games played.

Bottom Line: This is a great NHL betting pick to make on the Canadiens considering the odds are only -110 as the Canadiens are 4-0 in their last 4 games as a road favorite of -110 to -150 and 12-2 in their last 14 vs. Eastern Conference teams. In Buffalo tonight there will be as many Canadien’s fans as there are Sabres fans. Also the Habs Under record is 5-2 in their last 7 vs. Eastern Conference while the Sabres’ Under record is 6-1-2 in their last 9 games playing on 0 days rest.
