New York Islanders vs Philadelphia Flyers Pick – 4/12/2025

New York Islanders vs. Philadelphia Flyers Game Preview

The Islanders come into this game with a record of 34-33-11, placing them sixth in the Metropolitan Division. The Islanders find themselves in a must-win situation late in the regular season, as they need to win their final four games and get a lot of help for them to win the final Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference. That is highly unlikely, but it isn't impossible just yet, and the Islanders will look to keep themselves alive for another day with a win here.

On the other hand, the Flyers hold a 32-37-9 record, placing them eighth in the division. Philadelphia has long been eliminated from playoff contention and they are simply playing out the remaining games on their schedule. Philly is tied with Boston for the fewest points accumulated among Eastern Conference teams this season and they will look to finish the regular season with pride even if the year has not gone the way they'd hoped.

Considering the current form and statistics, the Flyers are favored to win this game. While the Islanders have more to play for here, they haven't proven themselves capable of winning consistently enough to back them in this matchup.

For bettors, the Flyers on the moneyline appears to be a solid choice. Given the recent trend of low-scoring games between these two teams, considering the under on the total goals line could also be a prudent option.
