When the New York Islanders and Anaheim Ducks take the ice at the Honda Center later today it will feature a meeting between two teams going in opposite directions.
The Islanders have a 17 game point streak going. They haven't lost in regulation since the fourth game of the season back on October 11. There isn't one player driving the bus for the Isles, they're winning by committee with everyone on the team doing their part.
That isn't what's going on with the Ducks of late.
With three losses in a row and the third-worst record in the Western Conference, things aren't going well for the Ducks.
