T.M. Selection: New York Islanders.

I like the New York Islanders to win this game against the Winnipeg Jets on Friday. The Islanders are back on their home ice again for another game on Friday night and this is right after picking up a 6-0 win on home ice the night before over the Blue Jackets. The Islanders looked great in that game and I think they can carry over that momentum on this B2B and play another great game here. That is their 2nd win in their previous 3 games and they have been scoring a ton of goals in their games too. They have scored 10 goals in their 2 most recent games alone and I think it is going to be very tough for the Jets to stop this red hot offense at the moment. They have won 2/3 of their previous 3 games but even in the game they lost 5-4, they were tied 1-1 up until the 3rd and then they still made a comeback after going down 5-1 in the 1st 10 mins of that 3rd period. I think they have looked great lately and this is not a team to jump in front of and get run over by at the moment. The Jets have won 2 games in a row now but they are a better team on their home ice and they just won a very shaky game in their most recent game. They just scraped by the Devils in their most recent game winning 2-1 in a road game and they even held onto that lead for half of the game. The Jets have not been scoring a lot lately and they will have an even tougher time scoring on the Islanders who have finally found their defense lately. The Islanders have also been scoring a ton and the Jets will not be able to hold them off with how the Islanders have looked lately. The Islanders are going to continue their run here and win this game on home ice. I like the Islanders to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 2-0 Islanders.
