Game two of our NHL predictions is a high-flying affair between the San Jose Sharks and the Montreal Canadiens. Alex Nedeljkovic will get the call for the Sharks, who are 4-4-2 in their last 10 games. San Jose was in the second wild card spot in the Western Conference entering this game. Macklin Celebrini is having a great second season with 33 goals, 58 assists, and 91 points.
Jakub Dobes has been locked in as the starter for Montreal, which is 6-1-3 in its last 10 games. This includes three consecutive victories heading into this game. Cole Caufield should be back in the lineup after an illness. He leads the team in goals with 37 so far this campaign.
There are some exciting young players on both ends of the ice. However, the Habs score the victory at home.
Prediction: Canadiens win 4-3.
