Scoreless in six straight Martin hasn't registered a point and has a plus/minus rating of zero in his last six games.

Impact Martin is having his normal season for the Islanders with five goals and nine points in 33 games. His job, along with Casey Cizikas and Cal Clutterbuck, is to antagonize opponents, keep their top players in check, and hit anything in a different color uniform. This is something Martin excels at, and anything he adds offensively is considered a bonus.

Assists on both tallies Pageau collected two assists and two shots in Monday's 2-1 overtime win over Philadelphia. He also had a pair of hits and was plus-2.

Impact Pageau drew the secondary helper on Oliver Wahlstrom's game-tying goal early in the third period, then he set up Anthony Beauvillier's game-winner in overtime.

On four-game point streak Wahlstrom scored a goal on his only shot in Monday's 2-1 overtime win over Philadephia.

Impact Wahlstrom located a rebound at the side of the net during a scramble and slipped it past Brian Elliott, tying the game at 1-1 just over four minutes into the third period. The 20-year-old rookie is officially on an offensive tear for the Islanders, hitting the scoresheet in five of the last six games (four goals, two assists), including each of his last four. His emergence has helped offset the recent loss of injured New York captain Anders Lee (lower body).

Playing on top line Komarov had found himself playing with Matthew Barzal on the top line the past two games, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
