At the start of the season, the NHL Eastern Conference standings reveal a lot of surprises, with six franchises tied at the top with ten points. One of them is the Detroit Red Wings, a team that overcame a challenging schedule against teams that were expected to obliterate them. Despite this, the bookies’ odds don’t make the Red Wings favorites against the New York Islanders on Thursday night.
Given that the Red Wings have already defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs in their lone road game in the regular season, it’s unlikely that not being favorites in the odds could generate any impact on their mindset. Additionally, it must be noted that Alex DeBrincat and Dylan Larkin were the top performers in the referred game against the Maple Leafs, so despite being expected to remain as the offensive leaders, the participation of players like Emmitt Finnie will be crucial to avoid depending on DeBrincat and Larkin.
As for the New York Islanders, it must be noted that they had a strong comeback in their most recent games, so it isn’t shocking that they went on a three-game winning streak. Nonetheless, they remain at the bottom of the Metropolitan Division standings with 6 points, so improving their defensive performance is key if they want to become a more competitive team in the Eastern Conference.
