The New York Islanders have gone streaking in January – they lost three games in a row to start the month, then won three games on their road trip, then lost back-to-back games on Jan.

Mat Barzal might be in some hot water with Islanders fans following last night's game, as he was caught on camera muttering some negative words about the crowd.

Kent Johnson scored for the Blue Jackets (22-18-7), who had their seven-game point streak end (6-0-1). Elvis Merzlikins made 22 saves.

Bo Horvat scored twice in the second period Monday night for the host New York Islanders, who beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 3-1 in Elmont, N.Y.

Safe to say that the Vancouver Canucks are regretting their decision to sign J.T. Miller over Bo Horvat. A few weeks ago, I spoke with New York Islanders alternate captain Bo Horvat about the ongoing feud between his former Vancouver Canucks teammates J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson.

The Isles scored a 3-1 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets at UBS Arena, closing the gap from eight points to six against a team that started the day in the second wild card spot in the Eastern Conference.

The Columbus Blue Jackets were hoping to leave New York with a split. The Islanders ensured that things didn’t go according to plan. Bo Horvat scored two goals and Iyla Sorokin made 25 saves to lift the Islanders to an important 3-1 win over the Blue Jackets on Monday night at UBS Arena.

At the one-year mark of Patrick Roy’s reign behind the Islanders bench, the head coach is hoping his team can put together a bigger, better version of what they did last season and make a run into the playoffs.

The Islanders scored three goals in five minutes and four seconds to secure the victory on home ice. Bo Horvat tied the game at one all for the veteran’s 15th goal of the season from Matt Barzal and Adam Pelech.

The Nationa Hockey League announced the Vancouver Canucks quarter-century first and second team on Tuesday morning. Both teams are scattered with old and current players.

UPDATE: According to NHL insider Elliotte Friedman, not only are the New York Rangers, Carolina Hurricanes and New Jersey Devils in the mix to acquire Vancouver Canucks forward JT Miller but the New York Islanders may also be getting in on the action. From Friedman via Canucks insider Rick Dhaliwal:
