I see this as a kill spot for the frustrated Islanders. The spot sets up well for them to bury the Blackhawks.
The Blackhawks just snapped an eight-game losing streak by beating the Rangers, 5-2, on Saturday. Chicago had surrendered 37 goals in their previous seven games.
The Islanders have lost their last two games, to the Flyers on the road and two days ago at home to the Predators in a game that was closer than the 4-1 final indicates.
The Islanders are a far better team than the Blackhawks, who rank 28th defensively.
