Montreal Canadiens vs. Calgary Flames Prediction

I’m on the Canadiens here. Until the Flames show some signs of life overall and offensively, it’s hard to back Calgary, especially against a Montreal team that’s just come out of the gate very strong so far this season. I think this is a spot where the Canadiens get it done even on the road. Give me the Habs here.
