Vegas at New York

This is a high NHL total but a dynamite Vegas defense is clicking, ranked top 10 in the NHL in goals allowed and penalty killing. Vegas coach Gerald Gallant preaches defense first and the Golden Knights are 7-3 UNDER the total after allowing two or fewer goals in their previous game. They come off a 4-2 win over Dallas and have allowed 23 goals over the last 10 games. The New York Islanders can also play tough defense at #10 in goals allowed. But the offense has been disappointing, #21 in goals scored, #27 on the power play. The Islanders are on a 7-1 run UNDER the total, including 5-0 UNDER at home. Play the UNDER.
