This is one of the few occasions where you can back Montreal with a slither of confidence. The Wild are coming off a hard-fought 2-1 win in Toronto on Thursday ahead of this back to back, and it’s worth noting they’ve gone 1-4 when playing on no rest since the season began.

If the Habs are to steal a win, it will likely come off the stick of veteran right-winger Nick Suzuki. Through January, he’s found the back of the net on four occasions, whilst also putting up six shots in a game against Montreal last year.

Massive rest mismatch here with the Sens off a three-day break and the Capitals coming off a 3-1 win over the Flames on Wednesday. The Sens have quietly put together two wins over Toronto and Utah leading in, while it might be worth noting four of the last six meetings between these two have been decided in overtime.

Brady Tkachuk has put up a whopping 47 shots this month, turning three of those into goals. He scored against Washington when they met last year and is probably the safest guy to bet on to light the lamp.

The Jackets might be over the odds when you consider they’ve had four days off to Vegas’ one heading into this game.
Columbus will go again on Saturday in Utah, but the current price is tough to ignore, especially after blowing a lead to win in OT against the Kings earlier in the week.
