Saturday was Kid's Day at Madison Square Garden, so it was fitting that a pair of 20-year-olds led the New York Islanders to a 7-2 win over the New York Rangers.
Mathew Barzal (2G, 3A) had his second-career five-point night, while Anthony Beauvillier scored two goals and added an assist as the Islanders blitzed the Rangers for an important win in their first game back from the bye week. The win was the Islanders' second straight - following a five-game losing streak - and improved them to 2-0-0 against their crosstown rivals. In total, the Isles have won five straight against the Blueshirts.
