The game will be boring as hell and Marty will get yet another shutout vs the Habs. He might even score a EN goal. 
Yes I'm still having awful flashbacks and nightmares about playing the boring and very defensive minded Devils from the Marty Brodeur era when they would play the Habs.

Devils Notes
-3/4 of the Devils lines are running while the 3rd line is a work in progress. It was good at the start of the year but Palat going down forced line up changes that killed that line.
-The Goalie Vanecek who has been key to the win streak is back after missing a game and one period.
-Forth line is dangerous, Wood is speedy and can make stuff happen on his own and is definitely a grinder, Bastian is a big bodied guy who gets pucks while Mcleod is good at faceoffs and is very speedy. Wood is probably going to price himself out being with the Devils next year as someone is going to give him a David Clarkson type contract.
-Tatar after having a very slow start has been doing pretty good recently.
-Look for Brendan Smith to take at least two penalties in the game and probably be a reason for the Devils conceding a goal. Severson also can do brain dead things which causes the Devils to get scored on.
-Devils forwards have been more willing to block shots recently and are willing to play ugly by diving towards pucks in order to sweep the puck out of their zone. So if you see Devils players on the ground a lot well that's the reason.
-After chanting "fire Lindy" at the start of the season the Devils fans chanted "Sorry Lindy" last game.
-The recent wins have been getting uglier so it could be a sign that the Win train is slowing and coming to a stop.
------------
Hope this slightly more in depth Devils info is helpful to some Habs fans.
If anyone has any other questions about the Devils I will be willing to answer them. It will be fun to see Slafkovsky playing against the Devils as it will be easier to evaluate how far he's come when I know both teams pretty well.

This is going to be a tough one......a very tough one.
If we manage to go to overtime, I'm happy but as usual, all I really care is to have a good game and see kids getting points!
But I think our winning streak ends here

A great test awaits.
Hopefully it will be entertaining.
NJD are very fast, this will be the challenge.

Going to the game. Seems like it's going to be a great night with NJD winning 9 in a row and the debut of the reverse retro.

I expect Allen. MSL definitely views him as our #1.
I think Montembeault goes against CBJ Thursday night. Then Allen back in on Saturday.
Don't want Monty sitting too long, and no need to over play Allen.

Most Eastern teams games are in the second half of the season for the Habs. There is a Philly game this week thought.

it was worse in the 90's because all the Devils looked the same, and we had to watch the stupid media fawn over Brodeur after every loss they gave us, and non stop talk about his dad taking pictures. God I hated the Devils/Montreal games
