Montreal has the kind of veteran team and powerhouse defense (fourth in the NHL in goals allowed) you need on the road in the playoffs. The Canadiens took their first lead of the series with a dominating 3-1 win in Game 3 at Madison Square Garden. The Canadiens are on an 11-3 run on the road, 9-4 after scoring two or fewer goals in their previous game. The NY Rangers have struggled at home, on a 3-9 run in this building. Montreal has won five of the last six at Madison Square Garden, so back the visitors again and play Montreal.
