This is a 10* BLOCKBUSTER on the New York Islanders.

We had a play on the Isles on the PUCK LINE in Game 1, but would not even need the extra 1.5 goals of insurance in the end as New York would skate away with an easy 5-3 victory. Suffice it to say, we're expecting a similar type beatdown in Game 2. Ben Bishop failed to make it through a start vs. the Islanders for a second straight time in Wednesday's opener, giving up four goals on 13 shots. Bishop is now 1-3-0 with a 5.00 GAA in four starts vs. New York this year. The Isles have the Lightning's number, they've won five of the last six in the series and John Tavares has four of his club's 25 goals in that stretch and four assists: "The team obviously that loses the game, I think always knows how important the next one is and not to lose two in a row," Tavares said. "We obviously expect their best, and we obviously want to raise our game, take it to another level and build off the first one." The value is simply too good to turn down here, play on the ISLANDERS.
