Two winning streaks collide in the NHL on Sunday night, as the Colorado Avalanche take on the New York Islanders at Ball Arena.
The Avalanche have won five consecutive games, climbing to the top of the league's overall standings. Jared Bednar's men have amassed 29 points with a 12-1-5 record.
Colorado also owns the best scoring record in the league, averaging 4.11 goals per game. Nathan MacKinnon is having another phenomenal season, and the Avalanche are basically impossible to stop when he's on his game. Entering the weekend, MacKinnon led the league with 14 goals and 33 points after 18 games.
The Islanders have put together a four-game winning run, signaling a positive turn for Patrick Roy's team after a rocky start to the season. With Friday's 3-2 overtime victory against the Utah Mammoth, the Islanders improved to 10-6-2 and are now just a few points off the first spot in the Eastern Conference.
Similar to Colorado, the Islanders have been a prolific team this season, averaging 3.33 goals per game. The team has found its offensive flow despite a disappointing 16.7 percent power-play efficiency.
Eight players on the Islanders have reached double digits in scoring this season, making the team a major offensive threat across the ice.

Our Colorado Avalanche vs New York Islanders Prediction
While the Avalanche's offense is tough to stop, they have shown some defensive weaknesses, allowing three goals in their last victory against the Buffalo Sabres and four goals last Sunday against the Vancouver Canucks.
The Colorado defense gets a big test against the Islanders, who have scored at least three times in each of their last four games. A couple of times, the team has required overtime to secure their third goal, but overall, the Islanders' offensive performance has been strong throughout the season.
Our prediction for New York Islanders vs. Colorado Avalanche: Islanders over 2.5 goals.
