One of the teams that are showing a very good recovery in the NHL are the New York Islanders, so even though the bookmakers’ odds have Colorado Avalanche as the big favorites to win their clash next Tuesday night, if the Islanders are capable of keeping the same defensive level shown during their most recent games, it would be impossible for the Avalanche to show dominance during the game.

When looking deeper at both teams’ performance, despite the streak of 4 victories in a row that New York Islanders currently hold, they remain as the worst offensive line in the Eastern Conference with 130 scored goals. Despite the cruelty of those numbers, Brock Nelson was chosen to represent the US in the 4 Nations Face-Off, so that is really increasing his individual performance.

On Colorado Avalanche’s side, they recently were able to cut off a streak of 3 losses in a row after their most recent victory over New York Rangers (4-5), a victory that allowed them to increase the gap between them and the eighth spot. Nonetheless, they’re the second worst defensive in the Central Division with 160 conceded goals, a big number for a team that was expected to compete for the Division and Conference championships.

Our New York Islanders vs Colorado Avalanche Prediction

In conclusion, this game will bring a huge chance for the Islanders to get closer to the playoffs’ spots, not only because they frequently get positive results when playing at home against the Avalanche, but also because Colorado hasn’t been a solid team when playing away as players like Nathan MacKinnon and Artturi Lehkonen aren’t having a good individual performance. Therefore, the pick for New York Islanders – Colorado Avalanche is: Over 5.5 Goals!
