Isles over Flyers
Game Time: 11/9/2006 7:00:00 PM
By: John Fina
With the Flyers in a rut, take the New York Islanders tonight when they visit the ice at Philadelphia's Wachovia Center.
Today the New York Islanders will be on the road as they take on the Philadelphia Flyers. We will side with the Islanders.
The Islanders come into this game off back-to-back losses. However, they should return to playing solid hockey tonight as they take on a poor Flyers team that is just 2-8 in their last 10 games. It's good to note that the Islanders are 12-6 after allowing five goals or more over the last two seasons.
We don't mind siding with the Islanders on the road as they are 14-5 in road games when playing against teams with a winning percentage of 25% or less in the first half of the season, a trend that dates back to 1996. We will side with the much better team! Take the New York Islanders!
