New York Islanders Notes:

The Islanders picked up their first victory of the season in a 6-2 win over the struggling Colorado Avalanche. The Isles got a pair of goals from Brock Nelson in the win. The Islanders were 18-20-6 on the road last season. They split the season series with the Blues last season, losing 4-0 in St.Louis and winning 4-2 at home. 

St. Louis Blues Notes:

The Blues are coming off a 4-1 home loss to the Wild in which Wild goaltender Filip Gustavsson scored an empty net goal. St.Louis has faced multi-goal deficits in every game this season, which is not a recipe for winning hockey. St Louis has come back to win two of those games, which shows the Blues are a resilient group.

Players To Watch:

NYI – Kyle Palmieri has 20 goals since Patrick Roy took over as head coach on the Island, the veteran presence has been a great addition to the Islanders. Palmieri is coming off his best season, tying his career-high in goals with 30.

St. Louis – newcomer Philip Broberg has been a nice addition to the Blues back end after coming over on an offer sheet from the Edmonton Oilers. Broberg has a four-game point streak and could become the first defenseman in Blues history to start his career with a five-game point streak if he can register a point tonight.
