Prediction
The home team has won seven of the last nine meetings in the series, and New York enters this contest as winners of their last two games. Meanwhile, Toronto has been struggling in their last five, especially on the road. The Islanders are clearly getting the better goaltending right now and that should be the deciding factor in this game.
The total is set at 6.0 for this contest. The total has gone over in four straight meetings in New York, but both of these teams have been trending under. Toronto has gone under in five of their last seven on the road, while New York has gone under in four of their last five home. With Lehner playing as well as he has of late, take the New York Islanders to win 4-1.
