New York almost pulled out a win at Boston on Tuesday, but lost 4-3 in a shootout loss and Semyon Varlamov had 30 saves for the Islanders, who look to avenge a 2-0 loss to Arizona in the first meeting this season. The Coyotes have lost seven of nine, including 3-2 to San Jose on Tuesday night. Ilya Sorokin is likely back in net for New York and he has a 2.36 goals-against average and his counterpart is Karel Vejmelka, who was the loser against the Sharks although he stopped 30 of 33 shots and he has a 3.07 GAA on the season. The Islanders are 48-22 their past 70 games against teams with losing records and they have won five of the past seven meetings. Arizona is 18-52 versus teams with winning records and 6-15 their past 22 games playing with two days rest. Take the Islanders as a Max Play.
