The New York Islanders are looking to end 2024 on a high-note when they visit the Toronto Maple Leafs in a New Year’s Eve matinee at Scotiabank Arena.
The Isles are coming off a 3-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday night. Anders Lee and Bo Horvat scored late third period goals, but that’s as close as the comeback bid came. The Isles have alternated wins and losses in their past four games.
The Maple Leafs are also coming off a defeat, as they fell 5-2 to the Washington Capitals on Saturday night. John Tavares and Bobby McMann scored in the loss. The Maple Leafs are 1-3-0 in their last four games.
Tuesday’s game kicks off a home-and-home set for the Isles and Leafs, who will see each other again on Thursday at UBS Arena.
The Islanders lead the season series 1-0-0 after scoring a 6-3 win over Toronto on Dec. 21. Bo Horvat led the way with a three-point game (1G, 2A), while Max Tsyplakov, Noah Dobson, Mathew Barzal, JG Pageau and Isaiah George – who scored his first NHL goal – found the back of the net.
William Nylander scored twice for the Leafs, while Bobby McMann rounded out the scoring.
The Islanders and Maple Leafs will wrap up their season series on Thursday at UBS Arena.
