Montreal Canadiens vs Calgary Flames Prediction

The Flames aren’t going to lose forever, but six straight losses are six straight losses, and it’s hard to get behind that with confidence. The Flames look awful at both ends of the ice, especially offensively, where there’s been no signs of life. The Canadiens continue to have success finding the back of the net, and they’ve beaten some decent teams already. The Flames are at home and have won 4 straight against the Habs, but their current form can’t be supported. Give me the Canadiens.
