The New York Islanders have gotten another winning streak started and look to extend it to three games as they take on the Boston Bruins on Thursday.
A fellow top team in the division, the Bruins have had the week off and saw two of their games be postponed due to COVID-19 protocols. The Islanders would obviously have the advantage for multiple reasons.
The Bruins would surely be rusty after not having played in a week and eight of their players would be out of the lineup on Thursday.
Combined with the fact that the Islanders are one of the best teams in the league while the Bruins haven’t been as dominant as usual, there wouldn’t be much of a reason for the Islanders to drop this one.
