The Canadiens haven't forgot the Blue Jackets ending an eight-game win streak they had early last year. Columbus buried Montreal, 10-0, in that game. That matched the biggest defeat in Montreal history.

The Canadiens are sure to play better defense this time while remembering that embarrassement. Columbus has scored only three goals in regulation during its past three games and owns the worst power play in the league.

The Canadiens had Al Montoya in net during that 10-0 loss last season. This time it will be Charlie Lindgren in net. He's played extremely well filling in for injured Carey Price and Montoya.

The Blue Jackets have Sergie Bobrovsky, this past season's Viezna Trophy winner, in goal. Montreal ranks 28th in scoring.

The Under has cashed in four of the last five meetings between the two teams in Montreal.
