| New York Islanders | 1 | 0 | 2 | 3 |
| Winnipeg Jets | 4 | 2 | 0 | 6 |
At least one Islanders player blames their recent losing streak on the presence of three goaltenders, rather than the team's continual presence in the bottom five of most important offensive categories.
The Islanders made critical mistakes to fall behind 3-0 in the first 10 minutes, ultimately falling to Atlanta 6-3.
The Islanders visit Atlanta their first post-deadline day game with Blake Comeau riding a hot streak of six goals in his last three games.
