On Tuesday, the Ottawa Senators travel to New York City to take on the New York Islanders at Nassau Coliseum. The last time these two teams met back in December, the Islanders put up six goals in a win in Ottawa.
Ottawa Senators
Before Sunday night’s win over Florida, the Senators had lost seven straight. Even with the win, Ottawa has just two wins in its last 10 games. It’s safe to say that this team just isn’t performing well these days.
Offensively, the Senators have struggled. The team is averaging just 2.2 goals per game over the last 10 games, and that includes a wild seven-goal outing against the Chicago Blackhawks. Take that game away, and the Sens have scored just 15 times in nine games (1.66 per game).

And the defense hasn’t been any better for Ottawa. The Sens have given up 20 goals in the last five games. That’s four a game, above the already awful 3.73 goals per game the team has given up this season.
New York Islanders
With how poorly the Senators have performed offensively, the advantage is already in favor of the New York Islanders. Add in the fact that the Isles lead the league in goals against per game (2.34), and this should be a good win for the home side.
Offensively, the Islanders aren’t exactly top of the league, but still have dangerous scorers on the ice. Anders Lee leads the team with 22 goals, but has just one over his last five games.

Brock Nelson is having a solid year as well, right behind Lee with 20 goals along with 23 assists. But, much like Lee, he has just a single goal over his last five games.
Despite the team’s best scorers having a bit of a goal-scoring slump, the Islanders have still found ways to win and should do so on Tuesday.

Free Ottawa Senators vs. New York Islanders NHL Prediction:
New York is the better team in this matchup, and the team will definitely have the advantage at home. I predict a high-scoring affair, much like the last time these teams met. Islanders get the win here.
4* Free NHL Betting Pick: New York -1.5
There’s not much value in the Islanders moneyline here, but New York should certainly put up some goals against a mediocre Senators team. Take the Islanders to cover the spread in this one.
