Senators vs Canadiens predictions
When the Ottawa Senators hit the ice at Bell Centre, all eyes will likely be on Cole Reinhardt, who's been on a hot streak with two goals already under his belt this season. Given his current form, Reinhardt might just continue his scoring spree. Alongside him, Jan Jenik, leading with three assists, could play a crucial role in setting up crucial plays. Their coordination might just be the key that unlocks the Senators’ offensive prowess in this matchup.
Turning our attention to the Montreal Canadiens, Michael Pezzetta has shown he knows how to find the back of the net, tallying two goals thus far. His aggressive play and nose for the goal could be vital against the Senators. Additionally, Alex Barre-Boulet, with his team-leading three points, will be another player to watch. His ability to both score and assist could indeed make him a central figure in Montreal's strategy to dominate at home.
Predicting an outright winner in this clash isn't straightforward, given how both teams have shown competitive spirit early in the season. However, considering the Senators’ strong start on the road and the dynamic duo of Reinhardt and Jenik, they might have a slight edge. Then again, the Canadiens have the home-ice advantage, and players like Pezzetta and Barre-Boulet are not to be underestimated. It's set to be a close contest, but the Senators could potentially snatch a narrow victory if they capitalize on their current momentum.
