San Jose Sharks vs New York Islanders. The NHL pick for this game is the New York Islanders. The Sharks lost all four of their first contests, which were placed at home.

Only six goals were scored in those games due to their attacking struggles. The offense of their special team was also dreadful, with the group completing only 6.3% of their Power Play chances.

Expect the Islanders to restrain San Jose’s attack given how effectively they performed defensively thus far, giving up two goals per game and killing all of their penalties.

With three or more goals conceded in three of their first four games, the Sharks also struggled defensively.

Unfortunately for them, New York will expose their defense in this match and the Islanders, who did not have any issue scoring so far, will smother the puck line. The New York Islanders will win to a predicted score of 5-2.
