Islanders - Los Angeles: betting tip (cf. 1.85) and bets on the NHL match

The seven goals conceded in the last four matches perfectly show how reliable the Islanders are now. Peter Deboer's team is gradually improving, with special attention being paid to defense and playing in the minority. After losing to Ottawa in shootouts (1:2), the New Yorkers beat Toronto 4-1, and then defeated Anaheim (3:2).

In the last meeting, almost everything was decided before the first break. Ondrej Palat, Viktor Eklund and Simon Holmstrom scored three goals in five minutes, creating a fairly comfortable advantage. However, the opponent quickly reduced the gap, and at the end of the third period scored again. But Ilya Sorokin managed to keep the victory by deflecting 15 shots. The young Matthew Schaefer, who has already scored eight assists, is particularly useful. At the same time, the goalkeepers of the Islanders continue to be one of the main advantages of the team.

Los Angeles managed to get its first victory of the season only on the seventh attempt. Moreover, the beginning of the exit meeting with Washington did not bode well at all. After the first period, Peter Laviolette's team was down 0:2. First, Ryan Leonard opened the scoring, and then Cole Hutson converted the majority. It seemed that the Kings would not be able to fix the situation again.

However, then the guests noticeably increased and responded with five unanswered goals, achieving a victory with a score of 5:2. It is especially important that before that the attack did not help the team much. In previous meetings, Los Angeles lost to Edmonton (1:4) and Boston (1:4), and the goalkeepers regularly had to withstand serious pressure. Now the main question is whether it will be possible to build on success. Still, one successful performance does not negate the problems of the first matches of the championship.
