COLUMBUS Florida Panthers Hoodies Womens , Ohio — The Vegas Golden Knights will be looking to end an already-successful trip with another road win on Monday night in a game against Columbus Blue Jackets.The Golden Knights (19-14-2) make their only visit to Nationwide Arena this season after a 4-3 victory in overtime over the New York Rangers on Sunday afternoon. Vegas bounced back from a 5-4 overtime loss to the New Jersey Devils on Friday after beginning the trip with a 3-2 win over the New York Islanders.“It’s been excellent,” Golden Knights coach Gerard Gallant said of the Eastern Conference swing. “Obviously disappointed the other night in Jersey with the comeback there. But after three games we’ve got five points. So we’ve got one more big one (Monday) and hopefully get something out of that.”Article continues below ...The Golden Knights have hit their stride in the past few weeks. They’ve accumulated a four-game points streak and gone 10-2-1 in their past 13 games.“I think everyone showed up,” Vegas forward William Carrier told reporters after Sunday’s game. “These games on the road, all the teams are going to show up. It starts on the first line and I think everyone did their job and … keep it rolling.“I don’t think we were playing the right way the entire trip. (Sunday) was one of our best games and we’ll keep rolling into Columbus and try to get the two points.” Sunday’s highlights included veteran goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury tying Tony Esposito for ninth place the NHL career wins list with 423 and offseason free-agent signee Paul Stastny scoring his first goal for the Golden Knights after missing 30 games with a lower-body injury.Fleury has started 13 games in a row and 31 overall, posting a 2.58 GAA, .907 save percentage and an NHL-best five shutouts.“Since the day we got him in the expansion draft, he’s the leader of our group and obviously he’s one of the best goalies in the NHL,” Gallant said. “He gives us a chance to win every time.”Other Vegas highlights were Alex Tuch delivering the winning goal at 2:11 of overtime and forward Max Pacioretty assisting on Stastny’s goal in his return after sitting out one game with an undisclosed injury.“I thought we played a good overall game,” Tuch said. “I thought we had a lot of o-zone time. That obviously starts in the d-zone. We cleaned up our game a lot and it really showed up on the scoreboard.”The Blue Jackets (17-12-3) haven’t been rewarded on the scoreboard lately but are pleased with the way they’ve played in the past few games. They’ve dropped three of four during a season-long six-game homestand.Their lastest loss came Saturday night in overtime against the Anaheim Ducks in a physical 2-1 defensive affair.“It’s never easy to take a loss,” Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella said.But he continues to be positive in the midst of the frustrating results. Despite the recent lack of wins, Columbus remains in second place in the Metropolitan Division.“I think we should have more points out of these three games than we have,” Tortorella said. “But I think a lot of coaches can stand up at the podium and say that during the year.“I’m going to judge the team on how they’re playing. I think we have found a good little piece here in these three games of playing the right way. We just have to stay with it.” The Blue Jackets finished with 15 more shots than the Ducks but couldn’t solve goaltender John Gibson. Markus Nutivaara scored the lone Columbus goal in the first period.“I thought we played well http://www.officialhurricanes.com/authentic-adidas-andrei-svechnikov-jersey ,” Blue Jackets center Pierre-Luc Dubois said. “I thought we had our chances. Unfortunately, we didn’t get the two points.” NEW YORK — The Florida Panthers are looking forward to playing Wednesday night because it will provide them an opportunity to forget about what happened Tuesday.The New York Islanders are looking forward to Wednesday night so they can confirm they haven’t forgotten how to play hockey.The Panthers will complete a back-to-back set Wednesday night, when they visit the Islanders in New York’s first home game in more than two weeks at Barclays Center.Article continues below ...Both teams are coming off lopsided losses. The Panthers suffered their first multi-goal defeat of the season Tuesday, when they fell to the host New York Rangers, 5-2. The Islanders last played Saturday night, when they completed a 1-3-0 road trip by dropping a 4-1 decision to the San Jose Sharks.The defeat Tuesday continued a frustrating trend for the Panthers (1-3-3), who scored first for the sixth time in seven games. Florida has led in all of its losses.“We came out and played pretty well and got the first goal,” Panthers defenseman Aaron Ekblad said afterward. “Usually, that’s enough to spark the team and inspire all of us to play at a higher level. For some reason, we have a tough time holding on to leads. Once we get that lead, we aren’t playing aggressive enough.”The Islanders (3-4-0) feel as if they aren’t playing enough, period. While they are one of six teams to have played seven or fewer games Brock McGinn Jersey Kids , no one else has experienced as sporadic a schedule as New York, which has already had two three-day breaks and one four-day break.In addition, Wednesday marks the third home game for the Islanders, who are splitting this season between Barclays Center in Brooklyn and their old home, Nassau Coliseum on Long Island. Only the Arizona Coyotes have played as few as two home games.“Every team we’ve played against is what you (would) consider a playoff team,” Islanders defenseman Thomas Hickey told Newsday following practice Tuesday. New York’s last six games have been against teams that qualified for the postseason last year.“That’s the good part of it. The bad part is when you have four days between a game, you might lose your game legs a little bit. You’re almost easing your way into the game, just defending and playing smart, whereas it’s not really instinctual like when you’re playing three games in four nights or playing every other night for a month, which is what everyone would prefer.”James Reimer, who replaced Michael Hutchinson in net early in the third period Tuesday, is likely to draw the start in goal for the Panthers on Wednesday night.Reimer Florida Panthers Hats Womens , who stopped both shots he faced against the Rangers, last started Friday, when he was pulled for Hutchinson in the second period after giving up four goals on 20 shots in what turned out to be a 6-5 shootout win over the Washington Capitals.The Islanders are expected to counter with Thomas Greiss, who has split time this season with Robin Lehner.Greiss, who sat in favor of Lehner the previous two games, last played Thursday, when he recorded five saves in relief of Lehner in New York’s 7-2 victory over the Los Angeles Kings. Greiss made his most recent start Oct. 17, when he took the defeat after making 21 saves in a 4-1 loss to the Anaheim Ducks.Reimer is 5-2-2 in 12 games against the Islanders. Greiss is 2-2-1 in five regular-season appearances against the Panthers, though he was the only goalie used by the Islanders in their six-game win over Florida in the Eastern Conference quarterfinals in 2016.
