Montreal Canadiens -1.5 (+150)
New York is scheduled to start Mikko Koskinen for the second consecutive game after the 22-year-old stopped 21 of 26 shots in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to Toronto in his NHL debut. Joel Martin, who has yet to appear in an NHL game, will be Koskinen's backup.
Do not expect this kid to hold up to the pressure against Montreal's hockey fans. They will be too loud and obnoxious for him tonight.
Although the Canadiens are not starting Price, Auld is in net, and is capable of stopping the Islanders, last time he faced them, the Islanders put 31 shots on him..he only let in one goal.
The Canadiens won by 2 or more goals every meeting this season against the Islanders.
