Islanders come back from the X Mas break to take on the Ottawa Senators

Hello there New york Islander fans, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!!!!! I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday break!! The Islanders are coming back from their 4 day Xmas break to take on the Ottawa Senators tomorrow evening at 7pm et live from the Barclay Center. The Islanders come into tomorrows action with a record of 18-13-4 with 40 points. While the Senators come into this matchup with a record of 15-18-4 and 34 points. The islanders are coming off of a 3 and 1 road trip beating the Dallas Stars most recently. While the Senators are coming off a loss to the Washington Capitals. But let's focus on this game.  The Islanders young talent has been showing much promise here in the early stages of this young season. Some of the young standouts include, Anthony B., Anders Lee and Matt Barzel. I know this sounds like it could result in an easy win, but there are no easy wins in this league and the Senators are not to be taken lightly. Ottawa has some talented players such as Matt Duchenne, Mark Stone and  Craig Andersen. Now that we've talked a little about the talent on each side, lets talk about the goaltending for tomorrows matchup. I believe that Craig Andersen will get the start for Ottawa, Andersen comes into tomorrows matchup with a record of 13-14-3 with a GAA of 3.5 and a save % of .991, while Thomas Greiss has a record of 12-7-1 and carries a save % of .920 and a GAA of 2.53. Let's hope the Islanders can put a couple past Craig Andersen tomorrow. i know we're all looking forward to see how this young team responds after a 4 day lay off, Let's go Isles, bring home the W tomorrow. You can catch all of the heart pounding action tomorrow at 7 pm et on MSG+. GOOO Islanders!!!!!
