New York at Tampa Bay

The NY Islanders offense clicks at home where they are 6-0-2, but dips on the road where all six of the their regulation losses have occurred this season. That includes a 5-0 defeat at Dallas two road games ago. New York is 10-2 UNDER the total after scoring six goals or more in its previous contest, as well as 17-6 UNDER after a game where 9 or more combined goals were tallied. They face a powerhouse first-place Tampa Bay defense that is second in the NHL in goals allowed, sixth in penalty killing. Tampa Bay is 65-42 UNDER the total at home after scoring 5 goals or more the last game. The Lightning have allowed just five goals the last four games. The UNDER has cashed in four of the last five meetings between these teams and this total is too high. Back the UNDER in this one.
