Montreal heads out on the road ranked sixth in goals allowed. They've allowed five goals the last three games. The offense has not been consistent, tallying a total of 11 goals the last five contests. They face a New York Islanders squad that is clicking defensively, allowing seven total goals the last five contests -- the last four under Interim coach Doug Weight. New York is playing well keyed by that defense, winning five of seven and nine of 15, including the last game in a 4-3 win over Columbus. The Islanders are 9-4 UNDER the total when their opponent scores five goals or more in their previous game. Play the UNDER in this one.
