Montreal will play host to the New York Islanders as it opens a four-game home stand where they will attempt to continue their winning ways and surpass Ottawa in the Eastern Conference. Oh yeah: it’s going to happen!
Better play at home is key and the Habs will be facing the Senators twice next week; a strong couple of games beforehand will not only add points, but also confidence. The Habs are 2-0 against the Islanders this season, winning 4-1 and 3-1 respectively.
While Huet may have been a little soft against the Caps on Thursday (well, Ovechkin, anyway), he is 10-2-2 in his last 14 starts, posting a 2.38 GAA in that time.
I’m going to predict a big win in this one, somewhere in the realm of 5-1. Bring on the Senators!
