The New York Islanders earned an impressive win against one of the better teams in the league, the St. Louis Blues, but needed more points in their two-loss Week 20.
Prior to their game against the Blues, the Islanders honored legendary defenseman Zdeno Chára, who recently became the NHL’s all-time leader in games played by a defenseman.
Chára is currently on IR and will hopefully return to the lineup soon to continue adding games to his historic career resume.
The Islanders are still having trouble playing consistent hockey and that’s preventing them from climbing the standings, but their performance against the Blues was inspiring.
