*6* MASSACRE on Montreal Canadiens.

The Montreal Canadiens are holding the best record in the NHL with 11 wins and only two losses so far this season. They're off a pair of dominant wins against Calgary (6-2) and Winnipeg (5-1) and I don't like the Ottawa Senators chances of recording an upset at Bell Centre Tuesday night.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Montreal's Offense - Only the Bruins have a better goal-per-game average than the Canadiens so far. They've averaged a sensational 4.00 goals per game at Montreal and the Sens are giving up plenty of goals with a 3.1 goals-against average.

2. Situational - The Canadiens are still undefeated (5-0) at Bell Centre this season and they're 5-2 in its last seven games when playing Ottawa.

3. X-Factor - The Senators leading scorer Mark Stone is suspended by the NHL for two games for his hit to the head of Landon Ferraro in the 5-3 home-loss to Detroit Saturday.

Selection: This is a play on the Montreal Canadiens (6*)
