Stadium: Little Caesars Arena (Detroit)
The Islanders won a long-awaited victory, beating New Jersey. However, Barry Trotz's team should not celebrate too early- they have lost too many chances at the start of the season.

The loss of the leaders is too painful for the Red Wings. Without Tyler Bertuzzi and Marc Staal, the team encountered three defeats in a row, losing with a total score of 7:18. Detroit lost to Nashville at home and then had two unsuccessful away games with St. Louis, Denver.
Despite this defeated streak, Detroit is still on the verge of getting into the playoff zone. The team is ranked 5th in the Atlantic Division, 1 point behind the wild-card zone of the Eastern Conference.
New York is one of the Strongest Teams in the League
There is no doubt that the Islanders will gain momentum within the season, make it into the playoffs, and qualify for the Stanley Cup finals for the third year. The Lamoriello-Trotz duo has not gone away. The Islanders lineup is still full of excellent and experienced players. That is why it's weird when someone doubts the strength of this team.
The Islanders blame the current last place in the Metropolitan Division on an unprecedented long road tour, then an outbreak of COVID-19, then psychological difficulties caused by frustrating results. The previous match with New Jersey showed that the team is gradually coming out of a vicious circle and will soon begin to win steadily. 4:2 the Isles laid the first stone in the foundation of climbing the standings.
Expert Betting Tips
The New York Islanders need to exploit a success achieved in the fight with New Jersey. Only a winning streak of at least 2-3 matches will return self-confidence to the Isles. The game with Detroit is very convenient now. The Red Wings are hardly ready to compete with the very motivated Islanders right now. Prediction: a victory of the New York Islanders.
