Anaheim tonight will look to put a halt to New York's 17-game point streak. The Islanders have gone 15-0-2 since Oct. 12 to climb into second place in the Metropolitan Division with 34 points (16-3-2 overall). Only eight teams in the last 35 years have recorded at least one point in 18 or more straight games. They're coming off a 2-1 overtime loss in San Jose on Saturday night and conclude their three-game California road trip on Wednesday in LA.
Mathew Barzal paces the Isles in scoring with 20 points (9g/11a) in 21 games. The 2018 Calder Trophy winner has led the team in points and assists in each of his first two (full) seasons and has appeared in every game since his 2017-18 rookie campaign. Thomas Greiss and Semyon Varlamov have each appeared in 11 games this season, with Greiss posting a 9-1-0 mark (2.07 goals-against average and .934 save percentage) and Varlamov sporting a 7-2-2 record (2.63 GAA, .913 SV% and one shutout).
The Ducks are hoping the comforts of home - as brief as it might be - will get them back on track after a tough road trip that saw them go 1-2-1. Their lone victory came in the opener, a 4-1 triumph in St. Louis on Nov. 16. They followed it up with a 5-2 loss against Washington, a 5-4 overtime loss against Florida and a 6-2 setback against Tampa Bay. They've gone 2-5-3 in their last 10 and bring a 10-11-3 record (23 points) into tonight's matchup against the Islanders.
Following tonight's game, the Ducks will hit the road for a date with the Arizona Coyotes on Wednesday before returning to Anaheim for a three-game homestand beginning Friday against the Winnipeg Jets.
