The New York Islanders took advantage of their opportunities tonight, with quick shots from Anders Lee, Brock Nelson, and Bo Horvat all going past Adin Hill and building a big lead against the league leaders.
It was good to see Nelson back on the scoresheet, and the top guys all looked sharp tonight, including Ilya Sorokin who made some huge saves to earn himself a shutout in a great road effort from the Islanders.
