ELMONT, N.Y. — There was no stirring comeback this time. Instead, the Islanders were shut out for the second time in four games.
The Coyotes won 2-0 on Thursday night at UBS Arena as the Islanders lost for just the second time in nine games.
They avoided losses by rallying from two-goal deficits entering the third period in both Monday night’s 4-3 overtime win over the visiting Flames and Tuesday night’s 4-3 win over the Rangers at Madison Square Garden. That was after Saturday’s 3-0 road loss to the Red Wings.
