Colorado has won 15 of 19 home games and it has won five of the past six meetings with New York, including 7-4 in the only one this season on Oct. 24. The Avalanche have won two in a row and seven of 10 after defeating San Jose 3-1 on Sunday for their fourth UNDER is six games. Valeri Nichushkin had a goal and an assist for Colorado, which outshot the Sharks 33-11 and Alexandar Georgiev had to stop only 10 of 11 shots to get the win. Georgiev is likely tonight and he is 19-8-2 with a 2.86 GAA and he has won four of his past five starts. Colorado has won five of six as a home favorite -151 to -200 and the Islanders are 2-8 after scoring two or fewer goals their previous game. The UNDER is 7-1-1 in New York's past nine games versus Central Division foes and the Avalanche have gone UNDER five of six playing with one day of rest. The Islanders have lost four of their past seven games. Take the Avalanche (Max Play), and bet the UNDER.
