The New York Islanders had a player’s only meeting after the 6-3 loss to the Washington Capitals on Thursday. After three awful losses, the team needed to get on the same page and get back to what has made them so successful over the last two years.
They’d have an OK chance of doing so against a Philly side that was missing their top two centers in Sean Couturier (injury) and Travis Konecny (healthy scratch). They’d also face Cater Hart who’s in a bit of poor form.
