💰 Penguins vs. Islanders best bet: Penguins ML (-110)⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Check out all of our NHL analysis and expert predictions this season.

The Penguins have been near-unstoppable across their last 10 games, and it's their special teams that continue to play a vital role in their success this season. It will be the difference once more. Coming into tonight, the Penguins own the fourth-best power-play unit and the fourth-ranked penalty kill, which should be enough for us to cash against the Islanders, who come into this one with the 26th-ranked power play. If that's not enough, this team has scored at least six goals in four of its last seven games, and owns a 15-7 record on the road. The Pens are clicking right before the break, let's ride them.

Score prediction: Penguins 4, Islanders 1

🔥 Best Penguins vs. Islanders prop bet: Sidney Crosby 1+ assists (+102) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Crosby has only one assist in his last four games, but he's coming off a streak of five helpers in four contests, and should see plenty of power-play time against these Islanders tonight. We've cashed this play twice in a row when writing about the Pens - let's lock in our third as part of our best Penguins vs. Islanders predictions.
