The Anaheim Mighty Ducks visit the New York Islanders on Tuesday, October 20, 2026. Both teams come in with similar records—Anaheim at 4-4 and the Islanders at 4-3—indicating a fairly even matchup so far this season.
Looking at the betting odds, the Islanders are the favorites at home. The moneyline shows the Islanders at -155, meaning you'd need to bet $155 to win $100 on them outright. Meanwhile, Anaheim is the underdog at +130, which offers a decent payout if they pull off the win.
The puck line, or spread, is set at 1.5 goals. Anaheim is +1.5 with -192 odds, so you’d need to bet $192 to win $100 if you back them to either win outright or lose by just one goal. The Islanders are -1.5 at +160, meaning a $100 bet wins $160 if they win by two or more goals.
The total for combined goals is 5.5, with the over priced at -135 and the under at +114. The odds suggest a slight lean toward fewer goals, but the pricing offers some value on the under.
Given the close records and the Islanders’ home advantage, betting on New York to win straight up or cover the puck line seems reasonable. However, the Ducks getting 1.5 goals is tempting given the payout. For goal totals, the under 5.5 offers value if you expect a more defensive game.
In summary, the Islanders are favored but the Ducks offer solid value on the spread and moneyline. The total leans slightly under 5.5 goals.
