New York is on a 3-4 run losing three times as chalk. They're getting outscored on the season as the offense is 18th in goals scored, while the defense is 19th in goals given up. The Islanders are 25-35 after a win by 2 or more goals. Pittsburgh is sixth in the NHL in goals allowed (2.68 per game) and second in save percentage (.917). The Penguins have won six of eight and play the second of a three-game homestand. Pittsburgh shut out the Islanders, 7-0, when they met four days ago in New York, so back home ice. Play Pittsburgh.
