CANADIENS (14-4-4) at ISLANDERS (9-11-2)

TV: RDS, MSG PLUS 2

Last 10: Montréal 7-0-3; New York 5-4-1

Season series: This is the second of three meetings. The Islanders erased a 3-1 second-period deficit to defeat the Canadiens 4-3 in overtime on Feb. 21 in Montreal.

Big story: The Canadiens have gone 11straight games collecting at least a point (8-0-3), but one of the only teams that managed to beat Montreal in that span was the Islanders, who are looking to build off Sunday’s win against the Ottawa Senators.

Isles take it 6-3, whoa. Their offense can be pretty explosive.

Islanders Definately have the offense to be a playoff team, but can the defense step up? Nabby has had a good season, we'll see if it continues.

Habs giving up 7 vs Pittsburgh and 6 tonight. Starting to play defense like the aforementioned Pens!
