The Montreal Canadiens appeared to have gotten back on track With a four game point streak prior to their visit to Calgary. Unfortunately for them, the Flames had other designs, and took the Canadiens down twice in regulation, sending them back to the drawing board.
If there was an ideal team to face coming off those losses, it would have to be the Winnipeg Jets. Though Montreal’s record against them hasn’t been exemplary, they did manage to take a 7-1 rout in their last matchup.
