The Montreal Canadiens are still fighting for a playoff spot while the New York Islanders have the fewest points in the NHL, but the Canadiens could be walking right into a trap here, giving the Isles nice value at this price.

Despite their terrible overall record, the Islanders have very pesky vs. probable playoff teams lately, beating the Red Wings and Blackhawks outright and taking the Flyers to a shootout, all within their last seven games. Even in their 5-3 loss to the Capitals last night, the Isles held a 3-2 lead with less than 10:00 left. Perhaps most importantly, they did go into Montreal and upset these Canadiens 3-2 three weeks ago.

Now the initial gut instinct would be to back the Canadiens in a revenge spot vs. an inferior team, but another problem for Montreal here is their dismal recent play on the road. The Habs are still just 3-6 in their last nine games overall despite beating Chicago at home last night, and they are a poor 3-13 in their last 16 road contests. Thus, they now have a losing 15-19-3 record on the road for the entire season.

Given these nice odds on the Islanders here, we would much rather bank on the Montreal road struggles to continue and put less emphasis on the revenge factor in this spot.
