The New York Islanders ended their three-game trip to California with a 4-1 loss to the LA Kings on Wednesday night at STAPLES Center.
After a second-straight regulation loss, the Islanders wrapped up their California swing with an 0-2-1 record, marking their first winless, three-game trip through the Golden State since the 2010-11 season. Wednesday also marked the third straight game the Islanders had scored one goal or fewer, netting two total goals on their road trip.
"It's a really hard road trip, probably the hardest road trip of the season," Derick Brassard said. "I thought we played a really strong game against a really good team in San Jose. In Anaheim we didn't have a good game and tonight we pushed well... we just couldn't get it done. I felt like we had more committment, played harder and we just have to go back home and reset."
