Last night, the New York Islanders earned two points in a refreshingly convincing and comfortable win over the Arizona Coyotes. Road trips out west can be dangerous for playoff hopes, and during a trip that featured the last two Stanley Cup champions, getting two points in Arizona was imperative—especially when you consider that coming out of the Christmas break, the Islanders had lost three of four games (1-2-1) heading into this game.
The top line led the way, with Bo Horvat [pinches fingers] this close to his first hat trick as an Islander.
