Chicago has been playing well on a 6-4 run, winning as underdogs of +180, +150, and +250. They come off a 5-1 victory at Philadelphia as a big dog and are working on a day of rest. Chicago is 98-92 on the road after scoring five or more goals in the last game. New York is on a 3-8 run and had to play yesterday, so it's the second of a back-to-back and their third game in four days. The offense is 21st in goals scored, while the defense is 23rd in goals allowed. The Islanders are 9-17 versus losing teams, 12-30 when playing their third game in five days, plus 0-9 when playing the second of a back-to-back. Play Chicago.
