Montreal Canadiens vs Pittsburgh Penguins: Sergei Murashov Under 24.5 Saves (-108)
Odds correct at time of publishing
The Montreal Canadiens have been on a roll, winning 7 of their last 10 games, while the Pittsburgh Penguins have struggled, managing only 3 wins in the same stretch. This matchup at Centre Bell looks like a solid spot for Sergei Murashov to have fewer saves than expected. The Canadiens have been playing well and limiting shots against, averaging just over 12 blocked shots per game, which is close to the league average.
On the flip side, the Penguins are not generating many scoring chances lately, landing under the league average for hits. With both teams in different forms, betting on Murashov to make under 24.5 saves makes sense. The main risk here is that both teams are close in their recent performances, so it could go either way.
