- Eastern Conference Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Florida and New York at 6:35 pm et on Sunday.
The Islanders have come out of the Olympic break with consecutive 4-3 overtime wins in Montreal and Columbus and now face a difficult back-to-back situation as they host the Panthers on Sunday. Florida has been idle since Friday's narrow 3-2 loss to Buffalo. The Panthers have obviously played a ton of hockey over the last few years and while they were off yesterday, this is a three-game in four-night situation. While this game figures to have a 'playoff-like atmosphere' with the stakes high for both teams, I'm not convinced we'll see a high-scoring back-and-forth affair. The fact that the Isles have been involved in a couple of high-scoring games since play resumed has this total slightly higher than it should be in my opinion. Take the under (10*).
