The Vegas Knights are on the verge of elimination!
The Dallas Stars were able to get a big 2-1 win over the Knights yesterday and put them on the fence. It’s going to be interesting to see if the Knights are able to turn it around. Their offense hasn’t been able to get going with just 6 goals over 4 games.
They are in serious trouble.
Today we’ve got an afternoon game as Tampa take on the Islanders. We correctly called the Islander staking Game 3 last time and now the question is whether they can continue that momentum or not.
Here’s our thoughts:
Islanders vs Lightning Game 4 Betting Tips:
Graeme: Tampa are still favourites for this one although it’s not as heavy favourites as they were.
I do think Tampa take this one and we end up seeing a gentleman’s sweep. I just feel they’re the better team and I worry that the Islanders won’t get by Vasilevskiy quite as much this time around.
It’s very conflicting here as I feel Islanders are the better value play but I am concerned about their ability to score goals.
Regardless they should still get the shots. I looked into player props and thought about it more but have decided to go with a bet based on if Point is playing. He’s been big for Tampa so Over 5.5 goals if Point is starting. As I can see them looking to flex their offensive muscle in this game but he would be a big help with that.

Scott: The Islanders won game 3 5-3. It got real heated at the end of the game. Sergachev, Hedman, Kucherov, Pageau and Clutterbuck all got misconducts and Martin and Goodrow had a fight. All of this happened in the last minute. It should make for a fun game 4.
The Isles have a chance to tie the series at 2 games apiece and make it a best of 3 if they can win this game. They got their first win in the series and can now try and build some momentum off of it. And with Point possibly out and Stamkos also gone now is the time for the Islanders to win.
Islanders win incl OT
