NY Islanders vs St. Louis Prediction: Expecting Tied and Total Under Match

Prediction for the NHL match between NY Islanders vs St. Louis, which will take place on March 6th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Islanders are just shy of the playoff zone. They are fourth in the Metropolitan Division and ninth in the Eastern Conference, six points behind Philadelphia. Note that the Islanders have no problems with their conditioning as such. They ride a three-game winning streak, going 13-6 overall - 3-2 in overtime over Dallas, 5-3 over Detroit, and 5-1 over Boston.

St. Louis, on the other hand, can't brag about their performance in the extreme five-game stretch. They managed to earn five points after two wins and one loss outside of regulation time. Of course, with a record like that, it will be hard to get into the playoff zone. At the moment, the Blues have to settle for ninth place in the Western Conference standings with 67 points.

We are not going to bet on a favorite. The Islanders' playing is far from stable, winning five out of the last ten matches. The Blues do not shine with ambition either, so the game's outcome can be absolutely anything. In our opinion, it's best to look at the totals. Most of the H2H meetings in New York ended with a total under - in four of the last five games, five or fewer pucks were scored.
