Pittsburgh is due for a correction after its wild 8-7 overtime win against Washington on Monday when Conor Sheary scored 34 seconds into the extra period. Sheary had two goals and an assist and Evgeni Malkin recorded a hat trick and the Penguins scored six goals in less than 11 minutes in the second period. In contrast, Montreal lost 1-0 at Detroit on Monday as Carey Price saved 19 shots, but the Canadiens couldn't get anything by Red Wings goalie Jared Coreau. Price has a 2.30 GAA and .922 save percentage and Marc-Andre Fleury has a .904 save percentage for the Penguins. The UNDER is 4-0-1 the last five meetings in Montreal and look for the Penguins to cool off considerably following their onslaught versus the Capitals. Play the UNDER.
