Moneyline/Puckline Pick: Calgary Flames (ML/-1.5)

This season certainly hasn’t started off the way the Flames had hoped after making a splash in the offseason moving on from longtime members of their team in Matthew Tkachuk and Johnny Gaudreau and replacing them with Jonathan Huberdeau, Makenzie Waegar, and Nazem Kadri.

While the wins haven’t come in bunches quite yet in the Flames season, they should have a routine win on their hands against the rebuilding Canadiens. The Habs are dazzling to watch offensively, but on defence they lack the toughness and awareness to stop their opposition. Allowing 3.5 goals against per game, the Canadiens defence is an open door, allowing anyone to enter their zone.

Back the Flames to put on a dominant performance against the Canadiens, covering the puckline and capturing a much-needed win. The Flames hold terrific value as a favourite and will provide a terrific payout on your Flames moneyline or puckline bets.

Over/Under Pick: Over 6 Goals

This game is set to be electric with several reliable goal-scorers featured on both sides, the Over is a fantastic look for all NHL bettors.

Both teams excel at finding the back of the net, with fast-paced play, terrific passing, and amazing shooting ability. While it may not be a close matchup, there is sure to be a plenty of highlight reel goals scored in this battle between Canadian clubs.

Don’t hesitate, bet the Over on the Canadiens VS Flames and watch the score rise as your bankroll skyrockets.

Cole Caufield Anytime Goal Scorer

One of the most exciting young players in the NHL, Cole Caufield is a phenomenal goal scorer. Tied for the 15th-most goals in the NHL, Caufield is no stranger to lighting the lamp red.

One of the focal points of the Habs offence, Caufield will have several fantastic scoring chances drawn up for him. Look for “Goal” Caufield to continue carving out an impressive start to his pro career, beating the opposing goaltender and cashing your anytime goal scorer wager.

Jonathan Huberdeau Over 0.5 Points

The second-highest point scorer in last years NHL season, Jonathan Huberdeau is always a great bet to get on the board in any matchup. With 12 points in 19 games played this season, Huberdeau is beginning to pick up steam tallying three points in his last two games.

Huberdeau is a premier offensive threat, able to go tape-to-tape with his linemates from seemingly anywhere on the ice, while still being able to buru the biscuit when called upon. With his tremendous skill levlel, recording a point against the lowly Canadiens will be lightwork for the Flames star.

Back Huberdeau to register his name on the score sheet by the end of the 60-minute contest and boosting your bankroll with this winning player prop bet.
