Detroit had its five-game winning streak snapped on Monday, courtesy of a 3-2 overtime loss to Vancouver.

Montreal is coming off back-to-back shootout losses, dropping its record to 4-4 in the bonus format.
Richard Park and Bill Guerin each scored for the New York Islanders in the shootout as Montreal lost, 4-3, on Monday. The game was highlighted by Canadiens defenseman Ryan O'Byrne scoring the tying goal in his own net after Carey Price went to the bench on a delayed penalty with 4:47 remaining.
Detroit won, 4-1, in the only meeting last season.
