Colorado has been on a roll to start the season, winning on the road and at home. They are on the road in this one facing an Islanders team with good goaltending. The Islanders will keep this game close along the boards, dumping the puck in and waiting for their opportunities. However, the Avalanche have the better offense and should pull away and win the game as the Islander's offense has struggled so far this season as they average less than 2 goals per game. Colorado can play on both sides of the puck and their goaltending so far has looked solid so take the better team to win.

Best bet: take Colorado on the moneyline.
