BOTTOM LINE: The St. Louis Blues host the Carolina Hurricanes after the Blues defeated the New York Islanders 1-0 in overtime. St. Louis went 43-33-6 overall and 25-14-2 in home games a season ago.
Even if you are the sort of fan who watches the Islanders when both New York baseball teams have playoff games, you still might’ve changed the channel.
The New York Islanders added speedy winger Anthony Duclair and KHL winger Maxim Tsyplakov this past offseason, giving coach Patrick Roy the ability to form two potent forward lines.
