Montreal Canadiens Form & Recent Results

The Montreal Canadiens enter this matchup riding the momentum of a two-game winning streak and have claimed victory in two of their first three games this season. In their recent 3-2 win over Chicago, Kaiden Guhle made a significant impact by notching a goal for Montreal. Looking back at last season, Cole Caufield emerged as the Canadiens’ top goal scorer with an impressive 37 goals, while Nick Suzuki was close behind, lighting the lamp 30 times. Suzuki also proved to be the team’s most consistent offensive threat, finishing the year with a team-best 89 points. Lane Hutson, meanwhile, showcased his playmaking abilities by leading the Canadiens with 60 assists. Defensively, Montreal tightened up late last season, allowing an average of just 2.6 goals over their final five games. After falling short in last year’s postseason, the Canadiens are hoping to channel that disappointment into motivation as they start the new season. On the offensive side, they averaged three goals per game throughout the previous season, demonstrating their capability to keep up with opponents on the scoreboard.

Seattle Kraken Form & Recent Results

Seattle heads into this matchup riding the momentum of a two-game winning streak to kick off the new season. Most recently, they pulled off a dramatic 2-1 overtime victory against Vegas, highlighted by a clutch goal from Jared McCann. McCann has been a key player for the Kraken, not just this season but last year as well, as he finished as Seattle’s top performer, leading the team with 61 total points. He was also their assist leader, tallying 39 assists over the season. When it comes to putting pucks in the net, Jaden Schwartz led the Kraken with 26 goals last year, closely followed by Eeli Tolvanen, who notched 23 goals of his own. Offensively, the team averaged about 3 goals per game during the previous season, making them a consistent threat to opponents. Despite their offensive firepower, the Kraken struggled defensively toward the end of last season, allowing an average of 3.8 goals over their final five games. As they aim to extend their undefeated start and go three-for-three to begin the season, shoring up their defense will be a key area of focus.
