Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Edmonton Oilers Pick & Prediction MARCH 23rd 2024

The Edmonton Oilers know that they will need to play a more complete game when they visit the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday night.

New York Islanders vs. Winnipeg Jets Pick & Prediction MARCH 23rd 2024

A six-game winning streak seemingly vaulted the New York Islanders into a wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference. Now, a six-game skid (0-5-1) is undoing all of their progress. Inconsistent all season, the Islanders (29-25-15, 73 points) attempt to avoid a seventh straight loss on Saturday afternoon when they host the Winnipeg Jets in Elmont, N.Y. The Islanders moved into the second wild-card spot when they rolled to a 6-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks
