The Vancouver Canucks are set to face the New York Islanders in their ongoing homestand, looking to capitalize on their recent success. With a record of 8-3-3, the Canucks aim to build on their last victory against the Calgary Flames.

In contrast, the Islanders are struggling with injuries to key players like Mathew Barzal and Adam Pelech. Despite this, the Canucks must remain vigilant against New York's remaining talent, particularly Bo Horvat, who is eager to score against his former team.
