New York Islanders vs. Arizona Coyotes: Home, home again

I like to win there, when I can.

After a 2-1 swing through California, the New York Islanders are back home again to face a fourth Pacific team. The Arizona Coyotes get their first taste of Barclays Center tonight, when they -- like the hosts -- will have a few lineup changes.

The Coyotes will have Anders Lindback in goal, with defenseman Philip "Son Of" Samuelsson making his season debut. Samuelsson played youth hockey in Arizona while his father, the knee-hunting former NHLer, was a coach with the Coyotes. Originally with the Penguins, Philip, 24, appeared in four games with the Coyotes last season.
