Islanders vs Predators Predictions and Picks
The Islanders battle the Predators in this Eastern vs. Western Conference matchup. New York is 4-4-2 in their last ten games and has a -21 goal differential. Before their current two-game winning streak, the Islanders had lost six straight, most of them by two goals or more. Their special teams play ranks near the bottom of the league, and they're 25th in goals scored.
In their last game, New York beat the Washington Capitals 4-1. The Islanders jumped out to a 2-0 lead after the first period, gave up the historic Alexander Ovechkin goal that passed Wayne Gretzky for most all-time, and then refocused to earn an impressive win. They were outshot 29-22 but did well in faceoffs and had more hits.
The Predators are 2-8 in their last ten games and have a -60 goal differential. While Nashville's defense has been improving, the offense continues to struggle. The Predators' power play and goals against rank in the lower tier of the league, though their penalty kill is a bright spot, ranked ninth. Filip Forsberg leads the team in goals, assists, and points.
In their last game, Nashville lost at home to the Canadiens 2-1. The Predators had a good chance to play spoiler against Montreal but came up short. They outshot the Canadiens 37-17 and went 0 for 4 on the power play. Nashville will aim to bring that same level of effort against a desperate Islanders squad.
Best Bet: Under
The Islanders are coming off a great win against the best team in the East, and their defense is playing well. The Predators' offense continues to struggle, but the effort is definitely still there. Both power plays have been ineffective, and overall scoring is average. This should be a low-scoring game, with New York's defense staying hot and Nashville pushing to end their losing skid.
