The Islanders started the game guns blazing, opening the scoring just nine seconds in. From there, despite getting outshot throughout the game, the Islanders were comfortable and the offense kept chipping in, with parts of the top nine involved in every goal.
Ilya Sorokin’s shutout was spoiled late in the third, but his 37 save effort was impressive. It wasn’t a perfect game for the Islanders, but they earned their sixth straight win at UBS Arena.
