The Montreal Canadiens look to rebound from a 6-4 loss to the Penguins Thursday when they take the ice in New Jersey.
The Canadiens look to avenge an earlier 5-3 loss at the hands of the Devils.
Oddsmakers like the Devils in this one, opening the line at 140 in favor of New Jersey. They are 17-18-5 this season, while the Canadiens are 18-14-6.
Montreal's blueline was shredded for 6 goals last game by the Penguins attack and they need a superior effort from the rearguards and keeper Thursday or the opening total of 6 could be eclipsed quickly.
Lou Lamoriello's team hopes to build upon a 3-0 win over Florida. They were 130 favorites in a game that went under the total.
Some trends to consider:
Montreal is 2-9-0 SU in its last 11 games after scoring 3 to 4 goals
Montreal is 5-13-3 OU in its last 21 games against New Jersey
Montreal is 4-7-2 OU in its last 13 games away against New Jersey
Montreal is 8-2-1 OU in its last 11 games
New Jersey is 4-7-2 OU in its last 13 games at home against Montreal
New Jersey is 4-10-2 OU in its last 16 at home
New Jersey is 3-8-1 OU in its last 12 games
New Jersey is 5-13-3 OU in its last 21 games against Montreal
Next up:
Montreal home to Ottawa, Saturday, January 7
New Jersey at Buffalo, Saturday, January 7
