In this Flyers vs Islanders Prediction, the Islanders are coming as -140 home favorites. Both teams have almost identical records this season and similar home/away splits. The Flyers are 3-1 in their last 4 games, while the Islanders are 1-2 in their last 3 as their offense has been struggling mightily, having scored just one goal in each of their last 3 games. I don’t expect neither team to light it up offensively and both defenses and goaltending have been good this season, so take the under 5.5 goals in this one.
