New York Islanders vs Carolina Hurricanes: More than five goals will be scored in the game

Prediction for the NHL New York Islanders vs Carolina Hurricanes match, which will take place on April 24. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

The Islanders had a poor first half in the back half. They faced an average mid-tier side, Buffalo, and lost 3:5 on the road. Of course, a playoff appearance was out of the question. The New Yorkers sit in fifth place in the Metropolitan Division standings with 80 points, 19 points behind overmatched Washington.

Carolina surprised in the first part of the back-to-back games. They played on the road against New Jersey and took the victory only in overtime (3:2). However, the Hurricanes scored two points and, as a result, retained their leading position in the Metropolitan Division table. As a reminder, the lower-ranked Rangers are breathing down their necks, trailing the Hurricanes by just two points.

Both the Islanders and Carolina have neglected their strengths for the upcoming game. Both teams showed far from their best hockey in the first half of the back-to-back, which is made up for in the second half.

Carolina has been productive on the road, with more than five goals in their last seven games. The Islanders tend to score two or three goals on home ice. All in all, we suggest playing on the standard total over.
