It's been a tight series to say the least, as the first three games went into overtime before Tampa Bay overcame a 2-0 deficit and won 3-2 in regulation in Game 4. The series shifts to Tampa Bay, but Montreal has won seven of its past nine road games and 13 of 18 overall. The Canadiens have been a good road team all season, winning 25 of 43. Jakub Dobes stopped 17 of 20 shots for Montreal on Sunday, and he has essentially matched the performance of his counterpart, Andrei Vasilevskiy. Dobes has a 2.60 goals-against average in the four games after finishing 29-10-4 with a 2.78 GAA and a .901 save percentage in the regular season. The Canadiens have won six of seven against teams that allowed two or fewer goals in their previous game, and they are 6-1 after scoring two or fewer. Take the Canadiens.
