Montréal is a fast team and features plenty of talented young stars who can use their speed to create odd-man rushes. If the Canucks can slow the game down, they might be able to frustrate the Canadiens, which could lead to scoring chances. Players to Watch: Vincent Desharnais: After a tough start to the season, Vincent Desharnais has finally found his groove. He played over 22 minutes versus the Predators and even saw some action in overtime a few nights ago against the Seattle Kraken. If Desharnais and his partner, Derek Forbort, can keep Montréal's forwards in check, it will go a long way in securing a victory. Lane Hutson: One of the Calder Trophy favourites this season is defenceman Lane Hutson. The 20-year-old has 27 points in 39 games and is already averaging over 22 minutes a night. A dynamic puck mover, Vancouver will need to ensure their forwards pressure him at all times and do not give him time and space in open ice.
