The New York Islanders continue their five-game homestand as they welcome the Minnesota Wild on Thursday night at 7:30, marking the first time the two teams will cross paths this season. Despite dropping both games in last year's season series, the Islanders are 3-2 against the Wild in their previous five matchups.
Both teams are coming off shootout losses, with the Islanders falling to the Dallas Stars 2-1 on Tuesday night at UBS Arena. Anders Lee scored for New York, but Jason Robertson's first period tally and his game-deciding shootout winner was enough to lift Dallas to the victory. Ilya Sorokin made 25 saves through 65 minutes to salvage a point for the Islanders.
