Isles Notes for 1/15

The Islanders defeated the Buffalo Sabres, 4-2 on Patrick Flatley night.


Per Eric Hornick, Nabokov won his 300th game in his 11th straight start; Matt Moulson with 21goals; Grabner’s 1st multi goal game of the season; Tavares +4 and 8 game scoring streak with 15 points over the last eight games; Travis Hamonic: +8; Islanders show balanced offense scoring 10 non-PP goals over the week.


With a one-goal lead in the final minutes, a penalty shot was accessed to Mark Streit. It was one of the worst calls made against the Isles in some time, and that is saying something. In the defensive zone, Streit stumbled into the net, inadvertently knocking it from its moorings as Thomas Vanek was moving the puck, well behind the Isles net.  Paul Kukla of KuklasKorner.com has the footage posted.



Upcoming Schedule:

Monday, home vs the Nashville Predators at 1:00pm.
Tuesday, away vs the Washington Capitals at 7:00pm.
Thursday, away vs the Philadelphia Flyers at 7:00pm.
Saturday, home vs the Carolina Hurricanes at 7:00pm.
