Columbus at New York
December 7, 2023
7:37 PM Eastern
Columbus had won four of six before running into two of the top teams in the league and losing to Boston, and then in overtime to Los Angeles on Tuesday. The Blue Jackets have allowed more than three goals in regulation just once their past eight games and they actually average slighty more goals (2.85) than New York (2.83). The Islanders have lost four straight against teams with below .400 winning percentages and New York is 1-6 its past seven home games. The Islanders come off a 5-4 overtime loss to lowly San Jose on Tuesday while blowing a three-goal lead. The Blue Jackets are looking for payback for a 2-0 loss in the first meeting this season. Play the Blue Jackets.

New York at Columbus
October 28, 2023
7:07 PM Eastern
New York snapped a three-game skid with a 3-2 victory over Ottawa on Thursday as Bo Horvat and Noah Dobson each had a goal and an assist and Ilya Sorokin stopped 45 of 47 shots for the Islanders. Sorokin is 3-1-1 with a 2.80 goals-against average and .915 save percentage with one shutout and he bounced back well after allowing five goals against Colorado two nights earlier. Columbus has played three straight overtime games and lost the last two to Anaheim and Montreal. Elvis Merzlikins is probable after allowing all four goals against the Canadiens. New York has won six of the past seven meetings and the Blue Jackets are 14-41 against Eastern Conference opponents and 17-41 versus the Metropolitan Division. Columbus has lost 44 of its past 62 games overall. Go with the Islanders.
