This is a 10* NON-CONFERENCE TOW on the UNDER Habs/Knights.

Both teams have been playing to several higher-scoring games of late, but I expect those trends to end here in Las Vegas.

Montreal is 5-2-0-1, while Las Vegas is 8-0-1-0.

Montreal has seen the total go OVER the number in three straight after a 4-3 shootout win over Winnipeg last time out, after previously beating Columbus 4-3 in OT. Note though that the Habs have seen the total go UNDER the number in eight of their last 11 after playing to three or more straight OVERS in a row.

Vegas has seen the total go OVER the number in four of its last five. It lost 4-3 in OT to Chicago, before then winning 4-3 in LA in a shootout most recently.

Look for a much more defensive affair this time around. This number is high, the play is the UNDER.

Good luck, NP
