Islanders vs Carolina Prediction: the Opponents to Throw the Scoring Show

Prediction for the NHL New York Islanders vs Carolina Hurricanes match, which will take place on December 11th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

In the last game, the Islanders shocked us. They defeated a powerful New Jersey team on the road in regulation time (6-4). The team showed their character and deserved that. Earlier, the Islanders failed to St. Louis by three pucks (4-7). As for the position of New York in the Capital Division, they take fourth place with 34 points.

Carolina wants to lead the Metropolitan Division, but they need to jump high. New Jersey has a nine-point advantage, but they have one game left. Of course, this gap could have been reduced by one point, but the Hurricanes decided to take it to overtime with the weakest team in the NHL and lost (3-4). 

• The Islanders are averaging 3.29 goals per game.
• Carolina has won four of their last five matches.

Carolina comes into the game in good shape, which can't be said about the Islanders. However, NY is on fire now, as they defeated New Jersey last week. Also, they'll play at home, where they can feel the support of their fans. It is better not to get into outcomes but to consider the total over.
