Friday Fight Night NHL
NY Islanders @ New Jersey +1.5 (-210)
The Islanders have lost 2 straight with the most recent loss coming against Edmonton. It doesn’t appear like New York is playing their best hockey right now. Normally, I would say they should have no problem with the Devils but they just lost to Edmonton. I think the Islanders win tonight but I’m expecting a 1 goal game either way.
Buffalo @ Tampa -1.5 (-140)
Buffalo got stomped out by the Carolina Hurricanes last night. They’re a bad team that’s playing terrible right now. They might lose 15-0 tonightin Tampa to be honest. This pick should be a lock.
Columbus (+115) @ Toronto
From October 24th to November 29th the injury stricken Bluejackets lost 15 of 17 games. Since that horrific month of games the Bluejackets have bounced back strong. They’ve won 12 of their last 15 games and have looked as good or better than the team everyone thought they had. I expect them to dismantle a Toronto team with an interim coach and a divided locker room tonight.
Florida @ Calgary (-160)
Florida isn’t that great but they do have Luongo. Calgary has a rowdy home arena and is coming off a tough loss to Detroit. I don’t see them dropping 2 in a row at home, especially not against the Florida Panthers.
Chicago -1.5 (+140) @ Edmonton
Chicago got their potent offense going last game after a short scoring slump. Tonight they take on Edmonton. The Hawks and the Oilers are on complete opposite ends of the ideal franchise spectrum. Chicago has a standard of success lead by great coaching, and even better players. Edmonton doesn’t have standards. They have no idea what their issues are or who to blame. Chi town on the road with a decisive win.
