This meeting doesn't decide anything for the teams in terms of the standings, as the Islanders have already lost their playoff chances, and Washington will most likely finish in 1st place in the Eastern Conference. But everyone expects an Ovechkin goal today, as the Russian forward has caught up with Gretzky in goals, and now the entire hockey world will be counting the goals of the new NHL record.
There is no clear favourite today, both teams will play without any pressure from the standings, Washington will play more aggressively for Ovechkin to score, so let's bet on the total.
Prediction: at least 5 goals to be scored. We recommend the "Over 5" bet, odds 1.51
