Carey Price had a bad night for Montreal as he gave up five goals in a 6-5 shootout loss to the Canucks last night. The Canadiens will go with Jake Allen in net tonight and he won his only start while saving 26 shots in a 3-1 victory at Edmonton on Monday. Thatcher Demko is expected to start for Vancouver and he has lost both of his starts this season. Montreal has won eight of the last 10 meetings and four of five on the road. Vancouver is 9-23 playing on no rest dating to last season. The Canadiens are 5-1-1 UNDER their last seven versus an opponent that scored at least five goals its previous game and the UNDER is 7-3-1 in Montreal's last 11 games overall. Look for Allen to have more success than Price. Play the Canadiens on the puck line and the UNDER.
