Chicago has dropped six of their last seven at home so even being at the United Center doesn't give them an advantage on Friday afternoon. Prediction: Montreal Canadiens +100 Full-Game Total Pick Neither of these offenses inspire a lot of confidence, but the equally bad goaltending makes the 'over' the way to go here. Chicago's Mrazek and Soderblom have allowed a total of 20 goals in their last four combined starts if anything for the mere fact that they are each getting pelted, facing 35+ shots in three of those outings.
If the Canadiens indeed go with Allen their #1 goaltender, his confidence is in shambles with 19 goals allowed in his last four trips between the pipes.

0 goals/game) and only complete 15% of their power play opportunities – but Chicago's defense is that bad. The Blackhawks are giving up five goals/game during their five game slide. What Montreal is really looking for on Friday afternoon is some consistency. They won three in a row earlier this month but overall are just 5-5-1 in November. Even so, the 10-9-1 start hasn't been bad for a Canadiens team that had the fewest points in the NHL last season (55). Sam Montembeault started in net for the Canadiens on Tuesday with the team playing on the back-to-back. He stopped 30 of 31 Columbus shots in the 3-1 road win but will likely give way to Jake Allen for Friday's game. Then again Craig Berube could go with the hot hand considering Allen has allowed 4+ goals in four straight starts and has a 4.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Chicago Blackhawks Prediction, Preview, and Odds - 11-25-2022After a day off for Thanksgiving, the NHL fires things back up on Friday afternoon with the Montreal Canadiens (10-9-1) looking to build some consistency as they visit the struggling Chicago Blackhawks (6-10-3).

26 GAA this month. Chicago Defense in ShamblesThe Blackhawks are throwing the kitchen sink at their goaltending issues lately, alternating between Petr Mrazek and Arvid Soderblom but to no real avail. Mrazek has allowed 11 goals in his last two starts and has a 3. 93 GAA in four starts since returning from the injured list.

The Blackhawks are actually the lowest scoring team in the NHL at just 2.
4 goals/game, due largely in part because they take the second fewest SOG (25. 8). Even Patrick Kane is struggling for the Blackhawks with just one goal this month. Best Bets for this Game Full-Game Side Bet Insiders Status: Rating: The fact that Chicago is a -120 favorite in the midst of a five-game losing streak really looks like a trap play on Montreal.

Montreal has the advantage in net, and their offense has scored 4+ goals in four of the last seven which gives them at least the potential to pull this game off.
