New York at Montreal

A strong offense coupled with a below-average defense has resulted in the Canadiens going OVER in 59% of their games this season. The signs here point to another OVER. Montreal is 24th defensively and ranks in the bottom seven in killing penalties. The Islanders have scored three or more goals in nine of their last 13 games. New York's Matthew Schaefer just became the youngest defenseman to reach 50 career points in NHL history. Montreal is the fifth-highest scoring team in the NHL at 3.5 goals a game. The Canadians also have the sixth-best power-play. Montreal's Cole Caufield is the second-highest goal scorer in the NHL with 40 goals in 67 games. New York came back from down 2-0 to edge Montreal, 4-3, in overtime on the road during the team's first meeting this season on Feb. 26. That was the third time in the last four games of this series that the OVER cashed. Take the OVER.
