New York at Carolina

New York is a dog but one of the best defensive teams in the NHL, fifth in goals allowed, fourth in save percentage, and Top 10 in shots on goal allowed. The Islanders are rested off of a 3-0 shutout of the Rangers and are 14-6 versus the Metropolitan division. Carolina is home from a five-game road trek and hasn't played at home in more than two weeks. Carolina is 35-48 against teams that outscore their opponents, as well as 77-112 when playing with three or more days of rest. Play New York.
