Buffalo at New York

Both teams are struggling and Buffalo is getting plenty of line value in this matchup against New York, which has lost seven of its last 10 games. The Islanders have allowed 27 goals their last six games but did pull out a 5-2 win over Winnipeg on Saturday. Mathew Barzal scored three goals and Jaroslav Halak had 38 saves for the Islanders. The Sabres come off a 4-2 loss at Carolina after beating Philadelphia the night before. Chad Johnson had 34 saves for the Sabres in a losing cause. The Islanders are 0-4 their last four games following a win and 1-5 their last six games against the Eastern Conference. Buffalo should get center Ryan O'Reilly back after he missed the last game due to the birth of his child and he has five points his last six games. The value lies with the underdog, so take the Sabres.
