Both teams aren’t producing on offense and this game shouldn’t see many goals. Both will play a good defensive game as they wait for their chances which is also going to run the clock down faster. Both play a more methodical defensive game. Both goaltenders are solid, allowing less than 2.0 goals per game on average, so there is value on the under. Seattle is 17-8 to the Under in December. The total has gone Under in 4 of NY Islanders' last 5 games against Seattle. The total has gone Under in 6 of NY Islanders' last 9 games.

Best bet: take the Under the Total.
