Sharks vs Canadiens Key Stats

San Jose have a poor scoring record, with the offense averaging less than three goals scored per game on average this season. The team lacks an array of scorers and most of the chances have been created by Erik Karlsson, with 30 goal contributions. Other players need to pull their socks up with time running out.

Their defensive responsibilities have not been fulfilled in the slightest. Even with the goaltenders doing individually well, they have been poor overall with over 3 goals conceded per game this season. They have not looked like a unit that can function in pressure situations.

Montreal need to inject a bit of consistency into their offense and need more players to come alive in front of the goal. Players like Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield have put up great shifts so far this season with 45 goal involvements, but have lacked the support. They need to work on their team formation to bring out the best in the players in the upcoming games.

Their defense has failed to live up to expectations, conceding more than 3.5 goals per game. Looking at some of the other options in their squad would be a good idea at this point.

Sharks vs Canadiens Betting Predictions

San Jose have not played well in their last five games, putting them at a disadvantage. They have failed to win games on the road and are likely to find it difficult against a settled Montreal side.

Montreal are likely to exploit the home conditions and force San Jose to concede goals. Their defense, although shoddy, might just be able to handle the misfiring San Jose attackers. Expect the Canadiens to emerge victorious here.

Prediction: Take Montreal, ML(-110)
