Devils look to continue domination of Canadiens

Jan 24, 2008 - 3:05 PM Montreal (25-15-8) at New Jersey (28-17-3) 7:00 pm EST

NEWARK, New Jersey (Ticker) - The New Jersey Devils go for their 10th straight win over the Montreal Canadiens when the two clubs meet on Thursday.

The Devils are coming off their highest scoring output of the season, defeating Philadelphia, 7-3, on Tuesday.

New Jersey tied a team record with five power-play goals in the victory and defenseman Johnny Oduya led the way with one goal and three assists.

Goaltender Martin Brodeur has been in net for the previous nine wins against Montreal, posting a 1.76 goals-against average in those contests.

But the Canadiens are coming off a big game as well, scoring a season-high eight goals in an 8-2 victory over Boston on Tuesday.

Andrei Kostitsyn had two goals and one assist, while goaltender Cristobal Huet made 29 saves. However, Huet is 0-6-0 all-time against New Jersey, but was not in net in Montreal's 4-0 loss to the Devils on November 30.

The Canadiens are 5-1-1 in its last seven games on the road.
