Top 3 Player Props
Player Prop #1: Mathew Barzal / Over 0.5 Points / 0.5 at -120 / 62% / Barzal’s high usage (22% on-ice xGF share) and Islanders’ power-play efficiency (18.5%) make this likely against Seattle’s middling penalty kill (79.2%), with 7 points in last 10 games.
Player Prop #2: Ilya Sorokin / Under 25.5 Saves / 25.5 at -110 / 58% / Sorokin’s starts feature low shot volume (24.8 avg. against) due to New York’s forecheck, and Kraken’s road offense averages just 22 shots, supporting under based on defensive metrics.
Player Prop #3: Jared McCann / Over 2.5 Shots on Goal / 2.5 at +105 / 55% / McCann’s shot volume (3.1 per game) rises in road games (3.4 avg.), exploiting Islanders’ occasional high-danger vulnerabilities (allowing 11.2 shots/60), with positive EV from recent trends.

⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public sentiment leans toward the Islanders with aligned money distribution, supported by sharp action via line movement, making following the favorite the optimal mathematical play rather than fading. New York’s recent form (7-3 in last 10) and home defense (2.1 GA/game) outweigh Seattle’s travel fatigue and road woes (3-7 away). The game outlook favors moderate scoring, with over edging due to both teams’ xGA above 2.8 per 60 but tempered by strong goaltending (combined .915 SV%).
