A pair of bad defensive teams clash. Montreal's defense is 28th in goals allowed (3.63 per game) and 26th in shots on goal allowed. Both road games have sailed over the total in a 6-4 loss at Boston and a 4-3 loss at the Islanders. The Canadiens are on a 12-5 run OVER the total. Philadelphia's defense is last in goals allowed (4.50 per game) and save percentage (.855). The offense busted out last night as Sean Couturier had a hat trick in a 7-5 win at home over Minnesota. The Flyers are on a 5-2 run OVER the total. Take Montreal/Philadelphia OVER the total.

Premium Picks
Philadelphia at Montreal
Philadelphia had a 3-2 shootout win over Montreal on Jan. 10 in the only meeting this season, and the Flyers come off a tough 6-5 overtime loss at the New York Rangers on Tuesday night. Samuel Ersson will look to redeem himself after allowing all six goals after not giving up more than three his previous five starts. Ersson still is 21-14-7 with a 2.75 goals-against average and three shutouts this season. Montreal enjoys a rare two-game win streak after defeating Colorado 2-1, but the Canadiens could be a little tired after concluding a five-game trip, and they only scored more than two goals once in those five games. Samuel Montembeault is likely in net with a 14-13-7 record. Philadelphia is 6-1 after allowing at least five goals its previous game and Montreal is 1-10 playing with one day of rest. Take the Flyers as a Max Play.
