Scouting report

No recommended play tonight.

The decider

Silovs is the weaker net by a wide margin right now — stopping about nine of ten, a touch under his baseline — so Pittsburgh's side of the scoreboard is the one likely to move.

The context

These two have been playing different games: Montreal's games are quiet, Pittsburgh's are ordinary. This bet is really a question of which pattern holds. Pittsburgh is putting 29.4 shots a game on net and finishing 12.1% of them.

Situational

Neither team is on a back-to-back and both had at least a day off; nothing here is worth adjusting for.
