I'm going to follow the Islanders' Over machine again. Only once in their last 11 games have the Islanders gone Under the total.

New York is bad defensively and lacks good goalies. The Islanders have allowed 21 goals in their last four games.

Pittsburgh is struggling defensively, too, giving up four goals in four of its last six games. The teams met slightly more than a month ago and seven goals were scored. It marked the fourth time in the last five meetings the Over has cashed in this series.
