Pittsburgh, winners of four of five before last night, took an unexpected spill at the hands of Toronto. We don't think they lose back-to-back games in which they should win. Montreal has won three straight but they were just 2-4 prior to that run. Sidney Crosby is performing as expected - very well. He's already recorded three goals and nine assists through nine games. Since last season, the Candiens are just 4-16 on the road when facing an excellent power play team (those converting 18%+). We like Pittsburgh to bounce back here.
