Montreal last season did not impress at all. The Canadiens managed to finish only 15th in the East standings, and it's hard to expect any accomplishments in the upcoming season. Although the team played two home games in the preseason in a great way, not just two wins, but not even a single goal (5:0 over Philadelphia and 3:0 over New Jersey). After that, though, Montreal lost to Toronto on the road (1:2).

Toronto on the other hand managed to get into the playoffs last season, but they did not show something extraordinary there, again flying out at the first stage. The Maple Leafs lost to Boston in overtime of the seventh game. They started the preseason with two games against Ottawa, and they lost twice - 5:6 in overtime and 1:2 in regulation time. But the day before, Toronto managed to register a 2:1 victory.

For both teams this confrontation is extremely crucial, and the day before Toronto managed to please their fans with a victory in it. But now the game will be held on the ice at the Bell Centre, where Montreal is already the favourite, and it will definitely have plenty of motivation. Overall, the Canadiens can succeed here, and we expect them to win.
