Sabres at Islanders: Projected starting goalies

Carter Hutton (1-6-1, 3.18 GAA, .891 SV%) vs. Semyon Varlamov (10-4-3, 2.10 GAA, .927 SV%, 3 SO)

Hutton has really struggled and has dropped his past five starts, including a 3-0 loss at home against the Islanders. He was actually solid in that one, turning aside 21 of 23 shots, but the offense gave him no support.

Varlamov was sharp Tuesday in New Jersey, stopping 28 of 29 shots, and he was just 12 seconds shy of his fourth shutout of the season. He is 2-0-0 with a 1.50 GAA and .947 SV% in his two previous starts this season against Buffalo.

Sabres at Islanders: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Islanders 5, Sabres 2

Money line (ML)

The Islanders (-225) will cost you two times your potential return, and while they’re expected to win against the Sabres (+185), there is just no value here. Play the puck line for a better wager. PASS.

Against the spread (ATS)

The ISLANDERS -1.5 (+125) is a much better play on home ice against the offensively-challenged Sabres +1.5 (-155). They won Thursday’s game by a 5-2 count against the Sabres, and they have covered the puck line in two of the previous three meetings with Buffalo so far this season.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER 5.5 (+120) will cost you a little extra, but the Islanders have the potential to take care of the Over on their own with little help from the Sabres.

If Buffalo can contribute anything, the Over is a solid play. They have totaled three goals in the first three meetings with New York, so don’t expect much more than a goal or two, though.
