Anaheim Ducks vs New York Islanders Prediction
The New York Islanders should be favored at home, as they’re the better team and should win. However, the Islanders have had a lot of bizarre results already this season, and they’ve lost in big favorite roles a few times. The Anaheim Ducks have some competitive results despite being on the wrong side more times than not, and the Islanders’ power play defense has been a major issue. Again, the Islanders should be favored, but this line is a bit nuts. I’ll take a shot in the dark with the Ducks and the big plus money.
