We have a small six-game slate of hockey on Friday with some great matchups. Here are my three best bets for Friday's NHL slate. And here’s a closer look at Islanders vs. Flames.
The Pacific Division's Calgary Flames host the Metropolitan Division's New York Islanders. Calgary has won by two or more goals in four of the last five meetings between these two teams, a trend that is likely to continue as the Islanders enter this contest on the second half of a back-to-back following last night's game against the Edmonton Oilers.
