New York has won five of eight, although it does come off a 2-1 loss in a shootout against Nashville on Thursday. The Predators had gone OVER their previous three games. Minnesota has gone OVER six of seven overall and four of six against the Metropolitan Division. Ilya Sorokin is expected to start for the Islanders, and he is 13-10-2 with a 2.44 goals-against average with four shutouts this season. He was the lucky goaltender when the Islanders routed New Jersey 9-0 on Tuesday in an easy OVER. Sorokin has won six of his past eight starts. Minnesota has lost four of five against teams that scored two or fewer goals in their previous game, and it has gone OVER five of six following a win. The Wild are 4-0-1 OVER after allowing two or fewer goals in their previous game and 4-0 OVER playing with one day of rest. Take the Islanders on the puckline and the OVER.
