New York lost 5-0 to Boston on Tuesday and that was at home and now the Islanders travel to Montreal without center Valtteri Filppula, who is out with an upper-body injury. The Canadiens defeated Philadelphia 3-1 on Tuesday and now are a point behind Columbus for the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference. Montreal goalie Carey Price is 30-22-5 with a 2.54 goals-against average and .916 save percentage and he had 33 saves in the win over the Flyers. The Canadiens have allowed a total of only six goals their last four games. New York is 4-11 its last 15 games after giving up at least five goals its previous game and the Islanders are 5-13 the last 18 meetings. Montreal is 8-2 its last 10 games against an opponent that allowed at least five goals its previous game. Play the Canadiens.
