The Islanders trail the Ducks in the season series 0-1-0 after a 3-1 loss at UBS Arena on Oct. 29. Mathew Barzal scored the lone goal for the Islanders with a power play tally, but it wasn’t enough to combat Anaheim’s offense with Leo Carlsson and Troy Terry potting power play goals of their own and Frank Vatrano burying the empty-net goal.

After losing three of their last four games, the Ducks are looking to get back into the win column against the New York Islanders. The Ducks are coming off a 4-3 loss to the St. Louis Blues on March 7 while the Islanders are coming off a 4-2 win against the San Jose Sharks on Saturday.

By trading only Brock Nelson this week, general manager Lou Lamoriello committed to the challenge of trying to retool the New York Islanders while keeping them in contention.

The Ducks will cap a busy hockey weekend tonight with the second leg of a three-game homestand, hosting the New York Islanders at Honda Center. PUCK DROP: 6 P.M. PT | WHERE TO WATCH | DUCKS STREAM | N
