The Islanders are having a rough season with their offense letting them down, scoring only 2.62 goals per game with only four goals in the last two games. Brock Nelson, Mathew Barzal, and Bo Horvat have scored 22 goals and 28 assists to lead the top two lines but the rest of the offense has struggled. Only three skaters have six goals or more and opposing defenses can eliminate the hapless offense as a result.
The offense has been the Islanders' downfall but the defense has also struggled, allowing 3.10 goals per game. Noah Dobson and Alexander Romanov have combined for 2.5 defensive point shares but the rest of the defensive unit has struggled, allowing opponents to carry the puck into the offensive zone and easily find open shots on the net. The bright spot has been the play of goaltender Ilya Sorokin who has a .913 save percentage and a 3.10 goals-against average on 503 shots with 4.7 go als saved above average.
