The Habs have the easiest schedule in the NHL from now until the end of the season

Everyone knows, the race for the playoffs in the Atlantic division is extremely tight.
Despite their two consecutive wins, the Montreal Canadiens have only won three games in their last 11, making it harder to make the playoffs.
However, the rest of the season is all in favor of the Canadiens.
In fact, the Canadiens have the easiest schedule for the rest of the campaign, according to the website Tankathon .
Among the tougher opponents, the Canadiens will face: The Leafs once The Oilers once The Panthers three times The Hurricanes twice The Avalanche once Against the weaker teams, the Canadiens still have games against: The Sharks (once) The Hawks (once) The Preds (once) The Kraken (once) The Sabres (twice) The Flyers (twice) Its interesting: Facing the Panthers three times is clearly not easy, but lets remember that the Canadiens won their only game against the Florida team this season with a score of 4-0.
Its also important to mention that the Canadiens have had a lot of success this year against the last champion teams (Avalanche, Lightning, Panthers).
As for the Oilers, things are not going well for them, having conceded no less than 22 goals in their last four games.
And we saw how Martin St-Louis team easily beat the Hurricanes on Tuesday night .
The Canadiens next game will be played at the Bell Center on Thursday, with the struggling San Jose Sharks visiting.
It will also be the famous matchup between the rookies (Lane Hutson and Macklin Celebrini).
In short, the Canadiens will have to take advantage of their easier schedule than the other 31 teams in the NHL.
It will start tomorrow night against the Sharks and the fans will still be treated to the Hutson-Celebrini matchup.
Well see which of the two rookies will stand out more.
