Canadiens vs Jets Prediction
The Canadiens continue to pile up the losses and are getting beaten over the head defensively. The Habs have allowed 12 goals in their last two games. I doubt playing on the end of a back-to-back is going to help matters. The Jets have the rest advantage, and they’re on the road, where they’ve won seven games. The Jets have also won 5 of the last 8 games against the Canadiens. I’m going to continue fading the Canadiens until they get back on track. Give me the Jets and the cheap price.
