Habs' critical game of the day.

Just if it wasn't enough, the Montreal Canadiens faces tonight the Buffalo Sabres. Standing atop of the Eastern conference since many months, the Sabres have been hit by injuries but didn't slow the pace a bit.

Which Montreal team will we see tonight? The one capable of the best? Or the fumbling one? The team has problems bunching up the success, losing 6, winning 3, then splitting win loss win loss. Montreal will be mathematically in it until the very end but a little consistence would not hurt. They got help from the hot Ottawa Senators lately beating the Carolina Hurricanes twice to keep the race even between the 7th-11th place teams in the race.

My early week prediction said 5 points out of 8. They are 2 points out of 4. The result of this one will decide of my prediction.
