Montreal is 26-21 UNDER and Columbus is 24-18 UNDER this season and four of the last five meetings have stayed UNDER. Also, the Canadiens are on a current streak of nine UNDERS in a row following Tuesday's 5-1 win over Florida. Antti Niemi made a career-high 52 saves as the Canadiens won their third straight. Columbus comes off a 4-1 win over New Jersey for its fourth win in a row and Joonas Korpisalo had 29 saves and soon could become the No. 1 goalie for the Blue Jackets as he has won three of his last four games. Carey Price probably will be back in goal for Montreal tonight and he owns a 2.65 goals-against average and .912 save percentage and he has allowed a total of only two goals his last two starts, including a 3-2 overtime win over Boston on Monday. Columbus is 8-3 UNDER its last 11 home games and 5-0-1 UNDER its last six against an opponent that scored at least five goals its previous game. Play the UNDER.
