Detroit vs. Islanders: NHL Match Prediction
Detroit and the Islanders will play each other for the second time this season on November 22. Almost exactly a month ago, the teams met in New York, and then the Wings won on the road with a minimal advantage. Anders Lee squad returned to the top eight in the East, but the Red Wings continue to be in the penultimate line in the conference. Derek Lalonde charges are terrible in attack and are one of the worst clubs in the league in terms of the number of goals scored. Who will celebrate success this time?

Command Analysis
Detroit Red Wings
USACurrent form
Detroit has not shown strong results at the start of the regular season and is in 15th place in the Eastern Conference standings with 16 points after 16 games. The team from Michigan has been playing in stretches and looked disastrous on home ice at the end of last month. Now it is in terrible shape and has five defeats in six previous games. Dylan Larkin squad began the last road trip with a victory in Pittsburgh (3:2, OT), but then lost in Anaheim (4:6), Los Angeles (1:4) and San Jose (4:5, OT). The visitors led the Sharks three times, but eventually came back in the final third of the match. For six games in a row, the Red Wings have not won in regulation time.
The Red Wings are rather weak in attack and currently have a negative goal difference of 46:60. Despite the fact that Detroit has a large number of skilled players, the hosts score only 2.56 goals per game. The club top scorer is Lucas Raymond, who has scored 17 goals (2+15).
Cameron Talbot has cemented his place as the team No. 1, stopping .9196% of shots on his own. His replacement is Alex Lyon, who has played seven games this season and hasn't shown much consistency.
Disqualifications and injuries
Jack Campbell will not play against the Islanders.
Interesting trends for betting
- Detroit is allowing an average of 3.3 goals per game.
Krylia have failed to improve their defense in recent matches and have not improved their defensive performance.
- The Red Wings are winning 50.8 percent of their faceoffs.
Derek Lalonde players have started to perform a little better at the point and win the puck for their teammates more often.
New York Islanders
USACurrent form
New York has moved up to ninth place in the conference and is still fighting for a place in the top eight in the East. The Islanders have scored 19 points in 19 games and were able to significantly improve their position in November. Anders Lee squad has lost only two games in regulation time this month. The current away tour continues. The team coached by Patrick Roy lost in Edmonton (3:4, OT), but then won in Vancouver (5:2). In the two previous games, the visitors managed to earn only one point. The Isles lost in Seattle (2:3) and Calgary (1:2, B). The Orange held the lead in the score against the Canadians, but conceded in the third period and were unable to win in the shootout.
The Islanders are one of the lowest scoring teams in the conference. The New York team has only 2.63 goals per game on average, but in their last five games they have scored 14 accurate shots. The visiting team’s leading scorer remains Kyle Palmieri. The veteran has found excellent form and has made 16 effective actions (7+9) this fall.
Semyon Varlamov is gradually displacing Ilya Sorokin as the Isles' starting goalie. The more experienced goalie has allowed 2.60 goals per 60 minutes on the ice and has stopped 90.28% of shots on his own.
Disqualifications and injuries
Matthew Barzal, Anthony Duclair, Adam Pelech and Mike Riley will not be coming to Michigan.
Interesting trends for betting
- The Isles have received five minutes of penalty time in previous games.
The visitors are rarely sent off and therefore do not concede many goals when short-handed.
- New York blocks 15 shots per game
The Islanders' defensemen often sacrifice themselves to prevent the puck from reaching the team goal.
Trends
Bet 1st period: total under 1.5 goals
Four of New York five road games have not seen more than one goal scored in the first period.
1.95Bet 2nd period: Islanders will not lose
Detroit hasn't won in the second period in seven straight games.
1.40Tip and bets
We believe that the visitors will take revenge for the defeat at the end of October. Detroit still cannot find its game in attack and remains one of the weakest teams in the NHL in this indicator. The Red Wings have not won in regulation time for six games in a row, while in eight games in Michigan this fall, Derek Lalonde charges have won only three. The Islanders look more stable than their opponents and are on the edge of the playoff zone. We think that Anders Lee squad will earn important points in the upcoming meeting. We suggest betting on the victory of the second in the match. Prediction - Islanders win the match for 1.78
Bet on individual total Detroit has had trouble converting their chances throughout the regular season, scoring an average of only 2.56 goals per game. In eight games on home ice this season, the Wings have only managed to score more than three goals once. The Islanders play well on defense and are unlikely to allow their opponents to have free reign over the puck. We bet on Detroit individual total of less than three goals with odds of 1.58
Total Bet
Not long ago, the teams already met each other in New York and then they scored only one goal. Both teams have big problems in attack and rarely please with spectacular matches. We believe that the fight in Michigan between these rivals will be similar to the one that took place a month ago on the Isles ice. Let play a bet on the total under goals.
We take the total under six pucks for 1.68
