The Anaheim Ducks continue their four-game East Coast road trip on Tuesday night against the New York Islanders at UBS Arena. Joel Quenneville’s team looks full of goals and will aim to prove itself against a top-class defense.

Only two teams have allowed fewer goals per game than the Islanders this season, but the mood inside the camp can’t be great at the moment. On Monday, the team announced that both Calum Ritchie and Matias Maccelli will miss several weeks with injuries.

At the same time, the Ducks received positive injury news on Monday: Mikael Granlund was cleared to return from an upper-body injury. The Finnish veteran has been a key piece for Anaheim’s offense, recording two goals and six assists in six games.

Granlund has complemented the Ducks’ young stars, Leo Carlsson, Beckett Sennecke, and Cutter Gauthier, perfectly. The team averages 3.14 goals per game and has produced impressive performances against some very tough defenses. Anaheim’s four victories this season include back-to-back wins over Vegas and Florida.

Quenneville has a young and fearless team at his disposal. While the Ducks might not be good enough to get two points on Tuesday night, they have plenty of scoring potential and can make this a very entertaining matchup.

Our New York Islanders vs Anaheim Ducks Prediction

With Granlund back in the mix, the Ducks’ offense has received a nice boost, giving them scoring threats on three separate lines.

The Islanders have a great defensive record, but it looks unsustainable. The team lost one of their best defensemen, Alexander Romanov, to injury early in the season. His absence will hit sooner rather than later.

Our prediction for New York Islanders vs. Anaheim Ducks: Ducks over 2.5 goals.

Prediction:

 

Ducks over 2.5 goals
