In this article we will formulate a Carolina Hurricanes vs NY Islanders Prediction for this NHL Game on Tuesday, April 30th at PNC Arena

Islanders Have Life

The Islanders might not have a lot of life, but they have some life after winning the last game. It took double overtime but the Islanders were able to secure the 3-2 victory. Mathew Barzal had a strong game scoring two goals. Semyon Varlamov had a strong game saving 42 of the 44 shots that he faced. The Islanders defense actually hasn’t been awful but the offense just hasn’t been good enough. The Islanders during the regular season had an offense that is ranked 22nd while the defense is ranked 19th. Anders Lee has had a solid playoffs so far finishing with one goal and adding three assists. Mathew Barzal scored two goals and added one assist.  In this game if the Islanders want to find success, they are going to need the offense to get out to a fast start. If they fall behind early, this is going to be a long game. 

Hurricanes Only Need One More Win

The Hurricanes have played pretty well so far this series and they only need one more win to make it to the next round of the playoffs. Even though they have looked good in terms of wins, some of the games they haven’t dominated. Two games ago the Hurricanes were able to secure the 3-2 victory. Two games ago starting in goal, was Frederik Anderson and he saved 29 of the 31 shots that he faced. The Hurricanes offense was ranked 7th during the regular season was the defense is ranked 4th. In this game the Hurricanes are going to need the defense to step up in a big way. During the playoffs, Seth Jarvis has scored two goals and added two assists. 

Carolina Hurricanes vs New York Islanders Prediction

This Game is going to be lower scoring. The Islanders offense is ranked 22nd overall and they are going to struggle to score. Even in the last Game, the Islanders only scored three goals and they are going to really struggle to get the offense going here. Neither team is going to finish with more than three goals and that is going to be the difference here as this Game is going to be lower scoring. Back the under to cash with ease. This Game might only have three goals scored total.
