New York Islanders
The Islanders are off to a hot start to the season, holding an 8-5 record going into the Battle of New York. That hot start can be credited to balanced hockey led by head coach Lane Lambert who has his team in the top half of the league in offense and defense.
The offense – led by the likes of Anders Lee, Brock Nelson and Mathew Barzal – is averaging 3.42 goals per game. Defensively, the Islanders are allowing just 2.50 points per game thanks to solid play from their top two defense pairings.
Semyon Varlamov is expected to get the start on Tuesday after Ilya Sorokin played in goal on Monday night. Sorokin played in the first game against the Rangers, earning a shutout that Varlamov will try to match.
New York Rangers
The Rangers are off to a solid start but have had to rely on their defensive effort and play of Igor Shesterkin in goal to find their way to wins this season.
Offensively, the Rangers would like to start seeing more goals in the back of the net. Scoring just 2.77 goals per game, the Rangers need young goalscorers Kaapo Kakko and Alexis Lafreniere to start stepping up with some production to get the offense going.
Luckily for the blueshirts, their top two defensive pairings are picking up the slack with some study effort. Led by Jacob Trouba and Adam Fox, the Rangers top two blueline pairings already have combined for over 100 blocked shots on the season.
Whatever shots haven’t been blocked by the Rangers blueliners have been stopped by Shesterkin. The Russian netminder is putting together an early case for the Vezina with a .916 save percentage and 2.41 goals against average.
