02/27/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Islanders play the sixth contest of their current seven-game homestand this evening, when they welcome the last-place Philadelphia Flyers to Nassau Coliseum.
The stand has been a successful one for the Islanders, who are 4-1 thus far on the residency to improve to 17-10-4 as the host this season. On Saturday, the club knocked off the Montreal Canadiens, 3-2.
Jason Blake scored the go-ahead goal and Frans Nielsen had a goal and an assist for his first NHL points to lead the Islanders in the win.
Richard Park added two assists and Rick DiPietro made 20 saves for New York, which has picked up 24 points in its last 16 games (10-2-4) to move into the playoff picture in the Eastern Conference.
The Islanders' recent winning surge has them just one point back of Carolina for the eight playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
New York will conclude its homestand Thursday against St. Louis.
The Islanders made a move on Monday to boost their offense as they acquired Richard Zednik from Washington for a second-round pick in the 2007 draft. Zednik, though, has just six goals and 12 assists through 32 games this season.
The Flyers have lost their last four games, including a 5-2 setback to Toronto on Saturday. Sami Kapanen and Simon Gagne scored for the Flyers and Michael Leighton stopped 25 shots.
Philadelphia begins a three-game road swing tonight. The club has been better on the road this season, compiling an 11-19-2 mark as the visitor compared to 5-18-7 at home.
The Flyers established themselves early on as sellers at this year's deadline when they shipped center Peter Forsberg to Nashville and Philadelphia made another move on Monday of the three-team variety.
The club shipped under-performing winger Kyle Calder to Chicago for defenseman Lasse Kukkonen and a third-round pick in 2007. The Blackhawks then moved Calder to Detroit.
Calder had scored a career-high 26 goals for Chicago in the 2005-06 season, but did not score a goal in his first 28 games with Philadelphia and has totaled nine goals and 12 assists in 59 contests.
Kukkonen, 25, is appearing in his second season in the NHL and has five goals and 10 assists in 64 games for his career.
Philadelphia had already sent defenseman Alexei Zhitnik to Atlanta on Saturday in exchange for defenseman Braydon Coburn.
The Flyers and Islanders will meet for the sixth time this season and for the final time at Nassau Coliseum. The Islanders have taken three of the five games so far this season, although the Flyers are 8-5-1 (one tie) against New York over the last 14 meetings.
