Next Tuesday night will feature the NHL clash between the New Jersey Devils and the New York Islanders, teams that have maintained as two of the strongest in the Eastern Conference. However, their current ups and downs have taken them down to the seventh and eighth spots in the standings, so this game could be expected to be one of the most stressful of the regular season.

With this goal in mind, the New Jersey Devils should try to improve their offensive performance, as they were only able to score more than two goals in one of their last five games. Despite that disappointing performance, the bookies’ odds have made them favorites in this game, but it cannot be forgotten that they lost their first regular season series game against the Islanders in overtime (3-2).

As for the New York Islanders, this team can be categorized as one of the greatest outsiders of the season in the Eastern Conference, as not many people were expecting to have them in playoff spots at this point of the regular season. Nevertheless, they currently have a three-game losing streak that could make them lose all the progress made throughout the season because there are five teams that are two points behind them.

Our New Jersey Devils vs New York Islanders Prediction

That said, these teams can be expected to deliver one of the most attractive games of the regular season. Also, it's worth noting that even though they played overtime in their first meeting of the season, the chances of reaching those instances again are high due to the pressure of winning to avoid leaving the Eastern Conference's playoff spots.

In summary, this game could be expected to be one of the most even of next Tuesday night's NHL schedule, and both teams will definitely compete until the end of the season for the Metropolitan Division championship. Therefore, the pick for the New Jersey Devils – New York Islanders is: Under 5.5 Goals!
