Looking at the odds for tonight's New York Islanders vs. Detroit Red Wings game as well as upcoming games on the Red Wings schedule

Ahead of tonight's game between Detroit and New York, NHL fans seem to be pretty split right down the middle regarding who they think will get the win.

On DraftKings, the Islanders have -115 odds to win, while the Red Wings have -105 odds to win. The odds are similar to those seen on FanDuel, where the Islanders are -120 favorites, and the Red Wings have -100 odds to win.

To simplify these numbers using the FanDuel numbers as a reference, it would take a $120 bet on the Islanders as the favorites to win $100, while a $100 bet on Detroit would win $100.

Of course, these odds are likely to change between now and puck drop based on how fans around the league are betting.

Following tonight's game, Detroit will host the Boston Bruins on Saturday before then hitting the road for a rematch with the Islanders on Monday.

From there, the team will return home for a three-game stretch that will see them host the Flames on Wednesday, the Devils on Nov. 29 and the Canucks on Dec. 1.
