Islanders 4 (EN), Senators 2: Top line, Wahlstrom lift Isles over Sens

After a comeback win against the Penguins on Tuesday night, the New York Islanders only made one change to the lineup, with Matt Martin coming in for Hudson Fasching.

Isaiah George stayed in the lineup with Alexander Romanov and Mike Reilly still out, and he played 24(!!) minutes tonight, more than Dennis Cholowski, Grant Hutton, and Scott Mayfield. Really promising stuff to have Roy’s trust like that in his 2nd NHL game.

The top line looked good tonight, with JG Pageau scoring in consecutive games, a three point night for Bo Horvat, and Anders Lee now having 6 points in his last 4 games.
