Game Preview: Islanders at Rangers

STREAKING

With an assist on Friday, Bo Horvat extended his point streak to four games with five points (3G, 2A) over that span. Horvat’s 16 points (9G, 7A) lead the Islanders this season.

Heineman has two points (1G, 1A) in his last two games and three points (1G, 2A) in his last four games overall.

Pageau has three points (2G, 1A) in his last four games.

RANGERS NOTES

The Rangers are 4-1-0 in their last five games, with all four wins coming on the road. Overall, the Blueshirts are a league-best 7-1-1 on the road. The Rangers are the first team in NHL history to record their first seven wins of a season on the road.

While the road record has been solid, it’s been a different story at home, as the Rangers are the only team in the NHL without a win on home ice this season, going 0-5-1 out of the gate at MSG.

The Rangers have scored six goals over their first six home games – and have been shut out in four of their six contests on home ice.

Defenseman Adam Fox leads the team with 11 points (3G, 8A) in 15 games to start the season.
