Philadelphia Flyers @ New York Islanders, 10:38am
Tip: Back the Islanders to Cover the Line (-1.5 Goals)
Kind of an interesting schedule spot with the Flyers playing the second game of a back-to-back, and the Isles playing their first before hosting Carolina on Sunday.
That said, the Islanders hold a big advantage returning from a lengthy three-day break, while Philly looks to bounce back from a difficult home loss to the Rangers last night.
Tampa Bay Lightning @ Chicago Blackhawks, 11:08am
Tip: Back the Blackhawks to Win @ $2.70
There’s a very minor case to be made for the Blackhawks here, if you’re brave enough, of course.
Chicago has lost seven of its last 10, but does return from a three-day break after taking a very solid Hurricanes team to the brink in overtime on Tuesday.
The Lightning, meanwhile, might have their eyes on Sunday’s quick road trip up to Detroit.
