Flames vs. Islanders Prediction

I'm in the islands. I wasn't too high on New York before the All-Star break, but right now Patrick Roy seems motivated to play better, as he has in the last few games for the Isles. The Flames themselves are playing well, but who is consistent in this game? I must think of the islanders. Give me New York here.
