Montreal Canadiens

Things could be better for Montreal in the current campaign. The Canadiens are not doing so well and currently sit bottom of the Eastern Conference standings with just eight wins and 16 losses in 24 games. The team has just 19 points. Martin Saint-Louis' men have suffered four setbacks in their last five games. They lost 4:3 to the Rangers and 6:3 to Boston.

New York Islanders

The Islanders are also in a sorry state. The New Yorkers are 12th in the East standings with 24 points. The Islanders have lost several games, only to come out on top in one. Only the day before, after three losses in a row, they managed to get away from Buffalo 3:0.

Expert Betting Tips

We think the Islanders will come out stronger in this one. Despite their personnel problems, the New Yorkers have played some great games, such as their 3:0 win over Buffalo the night before. At the same time, the visitors don't have any particular shortcomings; they fight, and all their defeats are respectable. Things are not quite deadlocked as they could be, but if the Islanders are going to make the playoffs, they simply have to get two points against Montreal.
