Montreal at New York

The Montreal Canadiens and New York Islanders have each started the season well, and appear to have the potential to be playoff teams. That should raise the intensity as the Islanders host tonight's contest. New York has been red-hot winning five straight as they have defended each of their last five opponents very well. New York has surrendered a stingy seven goals to their last five opponents, including a shutout in their last time on the ice vs. New Jersey. The Canadiens have been spotty in their last eight games, alternating wins and losses, and have produced three or fewer goals in seven of the eight. This should be a hard fought, tight checking statement game. Make the play on the UNDER.
