NY Islanders vs Colorado Avalanche Prediction: do not write off the Islanders

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on January 29. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

NY Islanders

Islanders decided to remind that they can fight for a place in the playoff zone too. In the last four games, the New York club has upset San Jose, Columbus, Philadelphia, and the cherry on the cake was Carolina. However, the Islanders were at the bottom of the table for too long, as a result of which they climbed only to 14th place. However, the gap to the top-8 is only six points, which in theory is not a difficult task to win back. It will be much more difficult to hold on to the spot, given that there are eight teams fighting for the eighth-seventh place.

Colorado Avalanche

Colorado is off the winning track. This is evidenced by the extreme five-match stretch, during which the Avalanche earned only half of a possible ten points. Recall, they managed to take points away from Dallas and the Rangers, as well as draw with Winnipeg after three periods. Thus, the Avalanche hold the sixth position in the Western Conference standings with a total of 60 points. They are six points short of the top-3.

H2H Meetings

Islanders is not the most convenient opponent for Colorado. In the last five head-to-head meetings, the Avalanche have recorded three wins against the Islanders' two.
