HALAK ROLLS ON

Jaroslav Halak stood on his head to get the Montreal Canadiens into the second round. In hockey you ride out a hot goaltender for all he’s worth. I think for us bettors we should keep throwing money down on him.

GAME SEVEN

The Montreal Canadiens will look for Jaroslav Halak to come up with another big performance to complete the upset of the Washington Capitals. It is game seven, and anything can happen. Halak has allowed just two goals over the past two games, stopping 80 shots. I’m going with Montreal tonight for some value.
