NEW YORK -- Something's gotta give.
The Devils and New York Islanders will both begin their five-day bye weeks on Monday, and one will enter with a long losing streak. The Devils have lost four straight, while the Islanders have dropped five in a row, entering Sunday's 1 p.m. contest at the Barclays Center.
The Devils have lost by one goal three times during their current 0-2-2 stretch, and they will turn to goalie Cory Schneider again on Sunday, where they will aim to win at the Barclays Center for the first time ever.
