It is a Metropolitan Division battle as the Pittsburgh Penguins face the New York Islanders. It is time to continue our NHL odds series with a Penguins-Islanders prediction, pick, and how-to-watch.
The Penguins enter the game sitting at 15-13-4 on the year, which places them seventh in the division. Last time out they faced the Ottawa Senators. The Senators scored first, but just a few minutes later the Penguins tied it up on a Lars Eller power play. Still, the Senators scored again to make it 2-1. In the second, the Senators would score twice in the period again, but like the first, the middle goal of the frame was from the Penguins, leading to the Penguins being down 4-2 going into the third. In the third, Drew O'Connor scored 1:51 into the period to make it a one-goal game. Then Kris Letang tied it up with under two and a half minutes left to force overtime. In overtime, Tim Stutzle would put the first puck in the back of the net, giving the Senators the 5-4 overtime win.
Meanwhile, the Islanders come into the game sitting at 16-8-9 on the year, which is good for second in the division. Last time out, the Islanders faced the Carolina Hurricanes. The Islanders scored first, on a Sebastian Aho (NYI) goal. The Hurricanes tied it back up, but the Islanders would score two more times in the period to lead 3-1. In the second, Carolina's Sebastian Aho scored to make it 3-2, but the Islanders struck back to have a two-goal lead going into the third. The Hurricanes would get two in the third, but Anders Lee would also score as the Islanders won 5-4.
