New York is 1-4 in their last 5 games against the Atlantic and 4-1 in their last 5 games played on no rest. The under is 22-8-1 in New York’s last 31 Thursday games. The under is 20-6-5 in these two teams last 31 head to head meetings in New York.
Pick
Ottawa comes into this game on a three game winning streak and has out scored their opponents by a total of 17-5 in those three wins. New York is on the second game of a back to back, but they will be at home. Ottawa has been playing very well and absolutely dominated the Red Wings in two games earlier this week. I like the value we are getting with Ottawa here.
