Islanders vs Rangers: prediction for the NHL preseason match
On October 10, two teams from New York face off in the NHL preseason match. What to expect from this fixture? Our answer is in the prediction below.

Command Analysis

New York Islanders

The last game of the Islanders was interrupted due to a power outage, and the match was canceled. Thus the upcoming game will be the last for the islanders in the preseason.
Earlier the islanders have already crushed the Rangers (4:0) and defeated Philadelphia twice (3:2 ОТ and 3:0). Barry Trotz's charges don't give their opponents space in their zone.

New York Rangers

Just like last season, the Rangers will build their game through the attack. They are not afraid to act on a collision course or sometimes on counterattacks, waiting for the opponent's mistake. The Rangers celebrated success in the last two preseason games.
First, they made a comeback in the game against Boston (4:3 ОТ), and they confidently dealt with New Jersey at home (6:2). Mika Zibanejad is in good form and he scored two goals against the Devils.
