Cole Bardreau scored his first NHL goal -- on a penalty shot -- to give the red-hot New York Islanders the lead for good Tuesday night, when the Islanders ran their winning streak to 10 games with a 4-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators in Brooklyn, N.Y. Cal Clutterbuck, Casey Cizikas and Josh Bailey also scored for the Islanders, whose winning streak is the second-longest in team history behind only a 15-game run during the 1981-82 season, when New York won the third of four straight Stanley Cups. It is also the longest winning streak in the NHL since the Tampa Bay Lightning won 10 in a row from Feb. 9-27, 2019. Goalie Thomas Greiss recorded 27 saves. Continue to Article

David Krejci made it through a few games without incident after a lower-body injury kept him out of the season opener, but had to leave Monday afternoon's matinee midway through the game with something that's assumed to be related to the same injury. Krejci exited the first period early and then made it through two more shifts in the second period before exiting entirely in Boston's 4-2 win over the Anaheim Ducks at TD Garden. There was no real update following the Bruins win, so it's unknown if the playmaking center is going to be able to suit up for Thursday night's big game against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
