In a normal context, a clash between New York Islanders and New York Rangers remarks as one of the most attractive confrontations in the NHL, however their last game in the regular season series won’t be the case as both teams are practically eliminated from the competition. In this regard, it must be noted that these teams have been suffering a lot with their defensive lines throughout the season.
On the one hand, New York Islanders have conceded 238 goals this season, being worth noting that in three out of their last five games they conceded 4 or more goals. With that in mind, it won’t be surprising if the biggest achievement for the Islanders in the 2024/25 season is defeating Washington Capitals in the game in which Alex Ovechkin broke the all-time scoring record.
On the other hand, New York Rangers were expected to increase its competitiveness during the last part of the regular season; however, despite showing some little recovery the irregularity attacked them again during their most important games, currently holding a streak of three losses in a row. In that matter, it must be taken into consideration that they lost their last three games in a row, in which they conceded 4 or more goals per game.

Our New York Islanders vs New York Rangers Prediction
In summary, this game is expected to be a very sad farewell for both teams this season, however it’s expected from the Islanders to show more strength as they haven’t been able to defeat the Rangers during the last 3 games of the regular season series against them. With that in mind, Artemi Panarim is expected to be nullified by the Islanders’ defensive line, therefore the pick for New York Islanders – New York Rangers is: 60 Min Line - New York Islanders!
