Montreal Canadiens vs New Jersey Devils Prediction: Montreal has an excellent chance to win

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on September 25. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Montreal showed frankly weak hockey last season. The Canadiens failed to make the playoffs, they finished the regular season in 15th position in the East. Only Columbus did worse. It's hard to say what to expect from them in this campaign, but there are no special achievements. At the same time, they started the preseason in a great way, because the day before they destroyed Philadelphia with a score of 5:0.

New Jersey, like Montreal, at the end of last season remained without the playoffs. But the Devils looked better than their opponents and finished 13th in the Eastern Conference standings during the regular season. During the off-season, the team strengthened, so we can expect them to make the playoffs in the new campaign. However, the first preseason game for New Jersey was a failure - 2:4 against the Islanders.

We believe that Montreal has an excellent chance to win the upcoming game. After all, the team started the preseason in a much more classy way, and 5:0 on the eve of the game with Philadelphia speaks of its spirit. Now, on a high, the Canadiens can handle the Devils. Moreover, New Jersey didn't impress in the game with the Islanders. We'll take the final victory for the home team (including overtime and shootout).
