Next Friday will bring a very interesting NHL calendar, in which one of the most anticipated games corresponds to the clash between New York Islanders and Edmonton Oilers, teams that will face at 05:30 pm CST, both having a big urgency of looking up for the victory. In this regard, the bookmakers’ odds are currently putting Edmonton Oilers as the big favorites to win, but it’s worth noting that the Oilers faced a very difficult game against NJ Devils less than 24 hours before the kickoff of this game.
With that in mind, New York Islanders must try to take advantage of that situation to look for a victory that could end with their streak of 2 consecutive losses. In addition, the Islanders are also expected to deliver a better offensive performance as they’ll finally play at home for the first time since March 04th, nonetheless it cannot be ignored that Brock Nelson’s departure has generated a negative impact on their performance.
Meanwhile, Edmonton Oilers have been showing a very poor offensive effectiveness that caused them to lose their last 2 confrontations in a row against teams from the Eastern Conference. In that matter, this will be their third away game in a row, so players like Leon Draisaitl and Evan Bouchard are expected to become more effective to push the Oilers closer to the fifth spot of the Western Conference.
