Prediction
The Islanders have won four of the last five meetings between these two teams, but the Blue Jackets has won four of the last five in Columbus and the home team has won nine of the last 12 in the series. Both teams have a lot at stake in this contest, but you have to like Columbus at home, especially considering how well they have played against New York there.
The total is set at 5.5. The Islanders have gone under in 38 of their last 55, including going under in 18 of their last 29 on the road. Columbus has gone under in 16 of their last 21. Considering that both of these goaltenders are coming off of shutouts, we expect a low-scoring affair here. Take Columbus to win 2-1.
