The New York Islanders continue their three-game homestand Thursday night when they host the Anaheim Ducks at UBS Arena, looking to build on one of their most resilient wins of the season.
The Islanders enter the matchup fresh off a 5–4 shootout victory over the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday. Emil Heineman delivered the only goal of the shootout, capping a comeback that began after the Isles fell behind 2–0 late in the first period. Bo Horvat sparked the rally with a goal in the final minute of the opening frame and finished with two on the night.
