Islanders end 7 game losing streak
Last night the Islanders decided to help out the Penguins, Devils, and Rangers by beating Flyers 4-3.
It was still 2007 the last time home felt like an advantage. That changed Tuesday when Trent Hunter broke out of his offensive funk and paced the Islanders' most productive night in quite some time. Hunter scored a goal and set up two others for New York, which broke a pair of seven-game skids with a 4-3 victory over the slumping division rival Flyers on Tuesday night. The Islanders did it with a season-best 47 shots. "It was a nice to get that win and it gives us something to build on," said Hunter, who hadn't scored since Jan. 11. "We can't relax. We have to focus, and we've got a big job ahead of us." New York hadn't won at home since beating New Jersey on Dec. 29 (0-5-2). The Islanders also didn't have a victory anywhere since a 6-3 win at Carolina on Jan. 22. |
