The New York Islanders travel to Vancouver British Columbia to take the Canucks tonight from the Rogers Centre

Good morning New York Islander fans, this is your favorite sports reporter coming to you from my house on this sunny but cold day, after we had a bit of a winter Wonderland yesterday with all the snow! The New York Islanders are still on their seven-game road trip, which now takes them to Vancouver, British Columbia to take on the Vancouver Canucks. The orange and blue are trying to bounce back after a very disappointing defeat against the Calvary Flames the other day, coming up short with a final score of 4 to 2. The only bright side that this reporter could see in their previous game was Anders Lee scoring his 300th NHL goal of his career. The New York Islanders will need a better team effort from the top to the bottom to get two points against the bottom feeders of the Western Conference in the Canucks. The Islanders are still sitting comfortably in 2nd place  in the playoffs with a record of 26 victories, 17 defeats and 5 overtime defeats. On the other side of the ice the Vancouver Canucks have a record of 17 victories, 26 losses and 5 overtime defeats for a grand total of 37 points this season. The Vancouver Canucks have already started selling off key pieces of their team most notably Quinn Hughes. I will be interested to see who they sell off next with the trading deadline only a couple weeks away. Now let’s turn our attention to the game at hand this evening. Some key matchups that I will be keeping an eye on while I listen to the game tonight include Emil Heineman and Anders Lee for the New York Islanders vs Brock Boeser and Keith Sherwood. It should be an interesting game tonight, but I would not take the Vancouver Canucks very lightly because you never know what could happen in the NHL on any given night.
