Four defeats in a row and 17 goals conceded in the last three meetings - Vancouver continues to fail the away series. The next opponent of the Canadians will be the Islanders, who are also not stable, but they have already defeated New Jersey at home and confidently defeated Chicago. Will the hosts be able to take advantage of the guests' problems? We analyze the latest games of the teams in our betting tip and select the bet
Command Analysis
New York Islanders
The Islanders' start to the season is rather contradictory. Peter Deboer's team scored only two wins in five matches, although both successful performances turned out to be quite convincing. At first, the New Yorkers didn't give New Jersey any chances at all (6:0), and then calmly dealt with Chicago with a score of 4:1. However, it is not yet possible to regularly show such hockey.
In the last meeting, the hosts lost to Tampa Bay (3:5), although they showed character during the match. The Islanders lost 1-3, but managed to restore equality, after which they still conceded twice in the final period. Tony Deangelo scored two points, while Jean-Gabriel Pageau and Brayden Schenn each scored a goal. The team looked good ahead, but mistakes in their own area again prevented them from achieving a positive result.
Vancouver Canucks
But Vancouver has a lot more problems. Manny Malhotra's team has lost four times in a row and is still completely unable to cope with opponents who are active on offense. The match against Carolina (2-7) turned out to be especially painful, after which the Canadians went to Newark and lost to New Jersey with a score of 1-4.
It was not possible to improve in the confrontation with the Rangers. The visitors got six goals again and lost 2-6. Moreover, Kevin Lankinen conceded six goals after 25 shots, and the efforts of Jake Debrask and Elias Pettersson, who scored goals, were not enough. The Canucks have conceded 17 times in the last three games. Defense doesn't help the goalkeepers much, and the team ahead doesn't always find the right solutions either.
Vancouver has scored 17 goals in the last three games. And it's hard to call it an accidental setback, since defensive mistakes are repeated in almost every meeting. Canadians have a particularly hard time against opponents who are actively moving forward and regularly load the goalkeeper with shots. The Islanders are quite capable of offering just such hockey.
Yes, Deboer's team is not stable either, but they have already demonstrated excellent performance at home. In the confrontation with Tampa Bay, the hosts even managed to win back with 1:3, although in the end they still lost. Now the opponent looks much less organized. Vancouver allows too much in its own zone, and its offense in recent meetings has hardly helped to correct the situation. For New Yorkers, this is a good opportunity to please the fans again. With the normal implementation of the moments, the hosts are quite capable of achieving victory in regular time.
