The New York Islanders and the Philadelphia Flyers meet in NHL action from the Wells Fargo Center on Monday night. Let’s dive into the odds, injuries, matchup history and make a prediction for this game.

Odds

The Islanders are listed as -125 road favorites while the Flyers are +105 home underdogs. The total for this game is set at 5.5 goals.

Injuries

For the Islanders, Noah Dobson is questionable for this game with a lower body injury while Oliver Wahlstrom is out for the season with a head injury. For Philadelphia, Zack MacEwen is out until early March with a jaw injury while Wade Allison is questionable for this game with a lower body injury.

Matchup History

Philadelphia’s 3-1 win over the Islanders back on November 29th, 2022, made it four straight wins for the home team in this head-to-head matchup.

Trends

New York is 0-5 in their last 5 road games and 0-4 in their last 4 games when their opponent allows 2 goals or less in the previous game while the under is 4-0 in their last 4 games against a team with a losing record. Philadelphia is 6-1 in their last 7 games against a team with a losing record and 5-1 in their last 6 games played on 3 or more days rest while the over is 8-1 in their last 9 home games.

Pick

I’m backing the under here. The Islanders had serious goalscoring issues prior to the all-star break and the Flyers don’t necessarily light the goals ablaze themselves. I think this game has first to 3 written all over it so give me the under here.
