The New York Islanders suffered their second loss in as many games, falling to the Columbus Blue Jackets 4-1 on Tuesday night at Barclays Center.
John Tavares opened the scoring with a power-play goal - and his 600th career NHL points - in the first period, but the Blue Jackets responded with four straight goals and put up 51 shots on the Islanders.
Pierre-Luc Dubois' power-play goal at 19:03 of the second period held up as the eventual winner while a pair of goals 43 seconds apart from Brandon Dubinsky and Cam Atkinson in the third period turned a 2-1 game into the 4-1 final.
Here are three takeaways from Tuesday's game:
