Islanders’ Bo Horvat on Pace for a Career-High in Scoring

New York Islanders forward Bo Horvat has never broken the 100-point mark throughout his NHL career. With his current scoring rate, however, he is poised to tally 103 points by the end of the season. This pace is attributed to his streaky play as of late, amassing nine points in the last six games. His impact cannot be understated in the past two games, as he netted a couple of goals in a showdown in the Big Apple against the New York Rangers, and drilled a crucial equalizer against the New Jersey Devils, who have proven to be a formidable…

Rangers Have a Balanced Lineup for the First Time This Season

The Edmonton Oilers were arguably at their lowest point of the season about 24 hours ago, down 4-2 in the back half of the third period against the Columbus Blue Jackets after a 9-1 thrashing from the Colorado Avalanche. But the magic of Connor McDavid and a lucky bounce allowed them to get to overtime, where Jack Roslovic played the hero against his former team. One night later, the Oilers got the same result, although their road there was (mostly) smoother. They once again piled around Roslovic after his goal ended the extra session, ending a three-game losing streak for…
