Thomas Greiss Stonewalls Senators On Tuesday

New York Islanders goaltender Thomas Greiss allowed one goal on 28 shots during Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Ottawa Senators. Similar to last season, the Islanders are the stingiest team in the league, allowing just 2.14 goals per game. It seems like any goaltender could thrive in Barry Trotz's defensive system, and the results are […]

Casey Cizikas Nets Two Points In Win Over Senators

New York Islanders center Casey Cizikas scored a short-handed goal, added an even-strength assist, and fired five shots on net during Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Ottawa Senators.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic continued his bizarre five-game statistical stretch in a 109-89 win over the Miami Heat.

Although Houston Texans wide receiver Keke Coutee has been active, he hasn't played a single snap in the last two weeks.

Head coach Bill O'Brien […]
