New York at New Jersey

Toronto needs an Islanders loss to make the playoffs and we think they get it here. The Islanders just aren't very good on the road and New Jersey is great at home and playing great. The Devils are 25-15 at home this season. Over their last five games they are allowing just 1.8 goals per game and they are 4-1. New York is 5-17 the past two seasons following a road win in which they scored 5+ goals. THey are also 5-12 following two straight wins. New Jersey is 23-9 vs. division opponents and they own the Islanders having won six straight vs. their tri-state rivals.
