NHL PREDICTIONS
1 UNIT* NHL* New York Islanders @ Buffalo Sabres: OVER 5.5 GOALS +115
The 6-11-4 Islanders head into Buffalo coming off of a 3-2 win in New Jersey that snapped a 4 game losing skid. Buffalo is dealing with a lot of injuries but managed to rebound from 3 straight losses with a big 5-1 victory over Washington on Saturday. Tonight's play on the OVER has a lot to do with numbers and how these two teams play each other. In their 4 meetings last season all 4 games went OVER the total with totals of: 13, 8, 7, and 8. The Islanders are also allowing an average of 3.38 goals against per game on the road (and a high 3.19 goals against per game overall), while the Sabres are scoring 3.38 goals per game on home ice. The OVER is 7-3-1 in the Islanders las 11 games overall, and the OVER is 4-0 in the Sabres last 4 overall. The OVER is also 6-0 in the Sabres last 6 home games, and 39-18-3 in their last 60 home games vs a team with a road winning % of less than .400. The Islanders haven't been scoring much, but a 3 goal performance in New Jersey for the win should help boost their confidence. I look for the trend of these two teams playing the OVER to continue here tonight and will take it at a good price.
