San Jose looks like the underdog in this game, as the Sharks have a terrible defensive game, also the team has no first goalie (Blackwood shows poor performance, so he can not fully replace Kahkonen Kaapo), so for 25 games San Jose has already conceded 102 pucks, which is the worst in the NHL. Although it should be noted that the team is now in great shape - 3 wins in the last 5 games, Rangers in the last match with great difficulty beat the "sharks" on their ice with a score of 6-5.
New York Islanders show not the best game in the current season - 10 in 23 games. And at home the team shows quite bad results - in the last 5 games Islanders lost 4 times. So it is better to bet on the total, as San Jose on average concedes more than 4 pucks per game, but no one can cancel a little sensation today.
Prediction: at least 5 goals to be scored. We recommend the "Over 5" bet, odds 1.49
