Nothing has slowed the Islanders lately, certainly not an injury-necessitated makeshift lineup. If anything, they just continue to improve offensively.
The Islanders won their seventh straight on Sunday night at NYCB Live’s Nassau Coliseum as they notched a season-high for goals in a 5-3 win over the Flyers.
Mathew Barzal and captain Anders Lee led the balanced attack with 11 Islanders getting at least one point as the team consistently beat the tired-looking Flyers to pucks.
The Islanders (8-3-0) have now scored at least four goals in their last three games — over four nights — and at least three goals in each game of their winning streak.
