The New York Islanders have proven extremely hard to beat of late, entering this contest with a 21-5-2 record through their last 28 games.

We can however note that they're 5-12 in their last 17 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600, and here they'll face a Calgary team that is 18-5-3 home at Scotiabank Saddledome. The Flames have answered a four-game slide with back-to-back triumphs over Pittsburgh and Arizona, scoring five goals in both games and they do not want to lose that momentum.

The favorite is 8-1 in the last nine meetings and this looks like a reasonable price on the home team.

8* play on Calgary Flames.
