The red-hot Montreal Canadiens will visit the Carolina Hurricanes today. These teams met just five days ago at the Bell Centre, with Montreal emerging victorious in a convincing 5-2 win.

My Canadiens vs. Hurricanes predictions and NHL picks suggest some similar happenings in Raleigh, given Montreal’s strength on the road. Expect Cole Caufield, the NHL’s hottest goal scorer, to chump the Hurricanes for a second time this week.

No one has scored more goals than Cole Caufield in 2026.

The 45-goal man has eight goals in his last eight games and found twine against the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday. He has two goals and four points in three games against Carolina this season.

He has 26 goals in 32 games since the calendar flipped. Ride the hot hand as he pushes for the elusive half-century mark.

Few offseason additions have been as beneficial as Noah Dobson. The 26-year-old leads the NHL in blocked shots (176) and has hit the Over in six of the last seven games, blocking an astounding 25 shots. He has a terrific matchup to wear some rubber tonight, as the Canes average the second-most shots on goal per game.

The Habs are perhaps the hottest team in the league right now, entering tonight on a four-game heater. They’ve won three straight against Carolina, including two straight as underdogs.

Furthermore, they’re the fourth-best team away from home in terms of points percentage (.657). Jakub Dobes will get the nod in goal, and he’s been lights-out as of late.
