The Islanders put a different lens on the early part of their five-game road trip by convincingly beating the Vancouver Canucks, 5-2 with the empty netter on top.
The power play scored(!) again, as Anders Lee continued his revival with a nice backhand pass from his doorstep office to JG Pageau. Lee scored himself later after Bo Horvat turned Quinn Hughes around, no small feat. Even Pierre Engvall got in on the action, scoring by parking himself in front of the net(!) and cleaning up the slop.
After pulling a point out of nowhere while being outplayed in Edmonton, the two regulation points in Vancouver were achieved without difficulty.
