Islanders vs Maple Leafs Pick NHL Betting Odds
On paper, you would expect the Islanders to come away with the win in this one, but they have not been a particularly good team on the road. The Maple Leafs may be struggling this year, but they are always tough to beat on home ice. Goals may be at a premium in this one, making the OVER/UNDER a pretty tricky proposition.Why bet on the New York Islanders
The Islanders (19-12-5) are currently sitting in 3rd spot in the Metropolitan Division, and are putting together a pretty solid season. Where they would like to improve is on the road, as they are just 7-6-3 there this year. Things have been a little up and down as of late for the Islanders, as they are just 5-4-1 in their last 10 games. Their last game was a home ice affair against these same Maple Leafs, and they went down 3-1 in that one. The Islanders are 16-20 ATS this season, and have an O/U record of 12-21-3. The Islanders do well after struggling to score in their previous game, as they are 7-3 SU when they score 2 or fewer goals in their previous game. The Islanders are averaging 2.6 goals per game, and are giving up 2.3 goals per game.![New-York-will-face-the-Maple-Leafs](https://cdn.mybookie.ag/wp-content/uploads/New-York-will-face-the-Maple-Leafs.jpg)
