That\u2019s the question facing Jacques Lemaire tonight. Normally, it\u2019s an easy decision \u2013 start the ageless puckstopper whenever you can and always start him against the Montreal Canadiens, as his French Canadian background motivates him to bring his A-game against them. But since New Jersey plays tomorrow as well, Lemaire could rest Brodeur tonight. Keep an eye on that before you make your pick tonight.<br \/>\nThe Devils haven\u2019t been totally invincible of late, losing three of four and scoring just three goals in their last three games. Especially if Brodeur doesn\u2019t play tonight, they\u2019ll have to get their offense going. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bodogaffiliate.com\/resources\/ca-banners\/sportsbook\/square\/250x250\/250x250h-sportsbook.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Sports Betting at the Sportsbook\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/>After last year\u2019s 45-goal campaign, Zach Parise has just five tallies in his last 24 games. Perhaps he\u2019s finally starting to suffer the effects of Lemaire\u2019s smothering defense-first system.<\/p>\n<p>The Habs have been a pushover in 2010, losing four of their last five. Maybe they could use a break from the pressure of Montreal? They played five of their last six games at home. They deserved better in a hard-fought loss to the Blues on Wednesday night. The Habs have scored a respectable 12 goals in their last four games and recent acquisition Benoit Pouliot has been a great fit. They\u2019re due for an inspired effort and the Devils aren\u2019t scoring. Try for the upset play tonight \u2013 maybe even if Brodeur plays.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NHL Betting Trends:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The total has gone OVER in 4 of Montreal&#8217;s last 5 games<br \/>\nThe total has gone UNDER in 6 of Montreal&#8217;s last 8 games when playing New Jersey<br \/>\nMontreal is 6-3 SU in its last 9 games on the road<br \/>\nMontreal is 1-4 SU in its last 5 games<br \/>\nNew Jersey is 5-0 SU in its last 5 games when playing Montreal<br \/>\nNew Jersey is 8-1 SU in its last 9 games when playing at home against Montreal<br \/>\nNew Jersey is 7-1 SU in its last 8 games at home<br \/>\nThe total has gone UNDER in 5 of New Jersey&#8217;s last 6 games<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick: Canadiens +160<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/record.bettingpartners.com\/_TcMlrmSOeQxhg6WO2I1rgWNd7ZgqdRLk\/1\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CLICK HERE TO CHECK OUT BODOG.COM&#8217;S NHL HOCKEY BETTING LINES FOR TONIGHTS MATCHUPS!!!!<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><strong><\/strong><br \/>\n<em><strong>Shea Matthews lives and breathes sports.
