Atlanta -1.5pl +207
The Rangers have 3rd stringer Chad Johnson starting tonight.
The Rangers have lost 4 in a row to the Thrashers, including 2 this year.
Atlanta should be very motivated, not want to lose 10 in a row, especially at home.
Atlanta is desperate
Montreal -1.5pl (+197)
Montreal has not lost 5 straight at home since 2000
Halak is playing like a man who wants to take the #1 goaltending position in Montreal. He knows if he plays well, and wins, he gets the next game.
Montreal is due for an offensive explosion and has scored 3 or more goals in 70% of Halak's starts.
Montreal's last offensive outburst was against the Panthers in Dec. (5)
