Columbus over N.Y. Islanders

7:30 PM ET. OT included. The Islanders enter this contest fresh off a much-needed 4-1 win over the lowly Sharks. The victory was a "feel-good" moment for a team mired in the Metropolitan Division basement, but it did little to address the core issues plaguing the Islanders. Before Saturday, New York had dropped consecutive games at home to Ottawa and Philadelphia.

Meanwhile, Columbus has been the surprise story of the season. The Blue Jackets saw their six-game winning streak snapped in a hard-fought 1-0 shootout loss to the Rangers on Saturday. The Jackets showed playoff-like intensity in a tightly contested game and were unlucky to come up short despite an outstanding performance from Daniil Tarasov, who stopped all 26 shots he faced in regulation and overtime.

Columbus’s recent form and confidence make them a dangerous underdog here. Their six-game winning streak wasn’t a fluke—they’ve been executing at a high level on both ends of the ice, and their defensive structure has been a hallmark of their success. The Jackets have embraced their underdog mentality and their ability to keep games close—particularly against stronger opponents—makes them an appealing play at this price.
