Bo Horvat kept New York alive in the third round of a shootout and Kyle Palmieri scored in the fourth to back David Rittich in the Islanders’ 1-0 victory over the Seattle Kraken on Sunday night

Kyle Palmieri clinched it in the shootout’s fourth round after Bo Horvat connected in the third round to keep the Islanders’ hopes alive. The Kraken’s Freddy Gaudreau had scored in the first round.

Islanders backup David Rittich stopped 19 shots in regulation and overtime and allowed only one goal in the shootout, securing his first shutout with New York and the eighth of his NHL career. The 33-year-old, who joined the Islanders this season after two years in Los Angeles, improved to 6-2-0.

BOTTOM LINE: The Boston Bruins visit the New York Islanders after the Islanders beat the Seattle Kraken 1-0 in a shootout. New York has a 5-4-1 record at home and a 13-8-2 record overall. The Islanders rank 10th in NHL play with 70 total goals (averaging 3.0 per game).

On Sunday, Nov. 23, the Seattle Kraken traveled to Long Island to take on the New York Islanders. This game was the second half of a back-to-back for both teams, so both were likely tired.
