It seems likes everybody likes the Islanders tonight. I played the Rangers last night for a few units.

It should be a helluva game with both teams needing a win and the natural rivalry that exists.

My reasoning is the Rangers have struggled all season at MSG, they are a finesse team led by Jagr going against a very gritty Islanders club that is rolling with one of the best young goaltenders in the league. The Isles have beat them all four times this season and now the Rangers are minus Shanahan.

In games like this I somtimes feel it is better to play the total or leave it alone

Great game by the Rangers and one Islander - Dipietro. Took a shootout but it could have and probably should have been a regulation win for the BlueShirts.
