- The Islanders can clinch a playoff berth with a win tonight and we expect them to get that win.
- New Jersey is just 17-20-3 at home this season and their struggles on home ice should continue tonight.
The New York Islanders will face off against the New Jersey Devils on April 15, 2024, at 7:00 pm ET. DraftKings Sportsbook has the Islanders as -112 favorites and the Devils as -108 favorites. Currently, 10% of moneyline bets are on the Islanders, while 90% are on the Devils. The total for this tri-state area rivalry game is set at 6.0 goals. It's shaping up to be an exciting matchup between these two fierce rivals.
We will take the Islanders to win this Islanders vs Devils matchup as slight favorites. There is a ton on the line for the Islanders in this contest, as they are currently sitting in third place in the Metropolitan Division. But a couple of losses to close out the regular season could see the Islanders drop out of the postseason entirely. Instead, we like the Isles to clinch their playoff spot tonight with a win in New Jersey.
The last time we saw the Islanders on the ice, they lost a tight game against the New York Rangers. But there is certainly no shame in losing to one of the best teams in the NHL. We expect the Islanders to bounce back in this contest and for them to do enough to guarantee themselves a spot in the Stanley Cup Playoffs next week.
