TEAM COMPARISONS<\/p>\n
The Canadiens are back home following a successful four-game sojourn out West that yielded six out of a possible eight points. That trip \u2013 which included stops in Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver and Seattle \u2013 has traditionally been a difficult one for the team, but this year\u2019s outcome proves how far the Habs have come since the start of their rebuild. Martin St-Louis’ contingent is tied for first in the Atlantic Division with 16 points, in addition to having several players \u2013 Cole Caufield, Ivan Demidov, Jakub Dobes, Lane Hutson, and Nick Suzuki come to mind, among others \u2013 ranking highly in other statistical categories across the NHL.<\/p>\n
Montreal\u2019s Atlantic Division rivals are coming off a 4-3 shootout win over the Calgary Flames at Canadian Tire Centre on Thursday. As the Sens embark on a three-game road trip, they\u2019ll be looking to improve their record in away arenas as they\u2019ve only captured one win. To do that though, they\u2019ll need to tighten up defensively as Travis Green\u2019s troops rank near the bottom of the League in goals allowed. Fortunately for them, Ottawa\u2019s offense has been clicking despite the absence of captain Brady Tkachuk who’s recovering from thumb surgery.<\/p>\n

For the Sens, Tim Stutzle has been on a fire as he leads Ottawa in points (tied with Drake Batherson) and is on a four-game point streak (3G, 5A).<\/p>\n
