ELMONT, N.Y. — It’s been almost two months since the Islanders have had a winning streak.
That hard-to-believe fact becomes even more head scratching when they show they’re capable of dominating team efforts such as the Thursday night’s 6-0 win over the overmatched Blue Jackets at UBS Arena, their largest margin of victory this season while matching their most goals for a game.
Captain Anders Lee completed his first career hat trick with a power-play goal with 0.4 seconds to go in regulation and now has five goals in his last two games.
