After beating the Kraken 4-0 on Tuesday, the Islanders have won their first two games back from the All-Star break to extend their win streak to four games.
Where were these Islanders last month?
In Bo Horvat’s home debut, the Islanders looked like the sort of team they envisioned themselves to be when they traded for him. After a sluggish start on the second end of a back-to-back, Samuel Bolduc got them on the board first and the Islanders never looked back. Chants of “HOR-VAT” came down as the center’s teammates met him by the bench. There would be no extended wait to see him score in an Islanders uniform, or to see his impact on the team. It was painted all over the ice — really all over the building, which was dotted with No. 14 jerseys. This was the first time the Islanders had scored over three goals in a game since Jan. 16 against the Capitals, and the first time they scored four since Jan. 3 against the Canucks.
All told, this was maybe the best the Islanders have played all season — and almost without a doubt their best performance since a pair of blowouts against the bottom-feeding Ducks and Sharks all the way back in the second and third games of the season. The Islanders are now just a point behind the Capitals for the first wild-card spot, though Washington has a game in hand.
