I think that Montreal has an excellent chance of beating Calgary, provided that they play a full game like they did in the last 5 minutes of last night's game against Boston.
One thing about the weather in Calgary in Feb. is that it could be a beautiful warm day (around freezing) or it could be -30* C and a strong wind blowing. I'm betting on warmish weather.

I wouldn't have wanted to see that game in person. It was too
cold.
