John Tavares
  • Tue, Dec 10Recent News
    • John Tavares scored a goal and registered an assist in the Islanders' 5-2 loss to the Anaheim Ducks Monday evening.
      Advice: The Islanders have struggled mightily this season, but they couldn't ask for much more from Tavares. He now has 12 and 22 assists in 31 games this season. Thomas Vanek also had a strong game with a goal and an assist in the loss.

  • Fri, Dec 6
    • John Tavares vented after his team dropped its eighth straight contest.
      Advice: "We need to have a lot more pride," Tavares said. "You're playing in the NHL . . . We proved a lot last year, but that doesn't mean you're going to just keep climbing. We're not earning it." The Islanders are 8-16-5 this season, which puts them nine points out of a playoff spot. They made the postseason in the shortened campaign, but already their chances of getting back there in 2014 are looking slim.

Corey Perry
  • Tue, Dec 10Recent News
    • Corey Perry scored two goals in Anaheim's 5-2 win over the New York Islanders Monday night at Honda Center.
      Advice: Perry scored a highlight goal in the game when he toe dragged the puck around Calvin de Haan, fell to his knees and still lifted the puck into the right side of the net for a 4-2 lead. Perry added a tap-in power-play goal in the third and has a career-high six-game goal-scoring streak. Defenseman Cam Fowler also had a very strong game with a shorthanded goal and two assists. Andrew Cogliano and Saku Koivu also scored for the Ducks, while Daniel Winnik added three helpers in the victory.

Anders Nilsson
  • Tue, Dec 10Recent News
    • Anders Nilsson allowed five goals on only 31 shots in the Islanders' 5-2 loss to the Ducks Monday night.
      Advice: The Islanders are winless in 10 straight games, their longest since a franchise-record 14-game streak in 2010. They lost a franchise-record 10th straight game on the road, all in regulation. New York has not scored more than two goals in eight straight games and has 11 goals total in that span. Nilsson has not yet won a game this season and he has a 0-2-2 record. His goal-against average is 3.63 and save percentage is .873. All three Islanders' goaltenders (Nabokov, Nilsson, Poulin) have struggled this season heavily.

    • Anders Nilsson will be in goal for the Islanders Monday night against Anaheim.
      Advice: He started three games in a row before Kevin Poulin got the nod versus Los Angeles on Saturday. Nilsson is still looking for his first win of the season.

  • Thu, Dec 5
    • Anders Nilsson allowed five goals on 26 shots Thursday as the Islanders dropped a 5-1 decision to St. Louis.
      Advice: The matchup was a very tough one for the inexperienced Nilsson, but he takes the loss nonetheless. His 0-1-2 mark is not something he'll be particularly proud of and neither are his GAA of 3.26 and his .883 save percentage.
