The Blues are known for their defense, but their offense has picked up in a big way. St. Louis has scored four or more goals in each of its last six games. During this span, the Blues are averaging 4.6 goals a game. St. Louis has produced at least three goals in 16 of its last 17 games.

Montreal ranks 27th defensively. Samuel Montembeault has been confirmed in goal for the Canadiens. He's one of the weakest starting goalies with a 2.88 goals against average and .900 save percentage.

The Canadiens are an above average offensive team. They've scored three or more goals in 12 of their last 14 games. The Blues rank 30th on the penalty kill.

So I fully expect at least a combined six goals.
