12/26/2008 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Islanders will try to earn their first win in nearly a month when they welcome the Toronto Maple Leafs for tonight's battle at Nassau Coliseum.
The Isles last tasted victory on November 29 when they beat Ottawa but have since lost 10 straight contests, going 0-9-1 during the slide. It's the longest losing streak for New York since it also dropped 10 straight from December 22, 1997 to January 10, 1998.
The club hasn't been defeated in 11 straight tests since March 16-April 5, 1996. The team record skid is 12, established during the inaugural 1972-73 season and equaled during the 1988-89 campaign.
New York's most-recent setback came Tuesday night against the visiting Atlanta Thrashers. Bryan Little scored twice, including the go-ahead power-play tally in the third period, as the Thrashers beat the Isles, 4-2.
Andy Hilbert and Sean Bergenheim had the goals for the Islanders, who are last in the Eastern Conference and the NHL with just 23 points on the season.
Joey MacDonald made 23 saves in the losing effort for the Islanders. New York played without centerman Doug Weight, who is battling a groin injury. Weight, who leads the Isles with 29 points, is questionable for tonight's contest.
The Islanders are just 5-9-2 as the visiting team this year and have lost four of their last five on Long Island.
Toronto, meanwhile, will be trying to rebound from a lopsided loss when it takes the ice tonight.
The Maple Leafs had won five of six games heading into Tuesday's home tilt against Dallas, but were slammed by the Stars, 8-2. Rookie James Neal recorded his first-career hat trick to lead the Stars to the blowout victory at Air Canada Centre.
Jason Blake and Mikhail Grabovski tallied for Toronto, which had won two in a row but set a season-high in goals allowed.
Vesa Toskala started in net for the Maple Leafs, but allowed seven goals on 27 shots and was removed in favor of Curtis Joseph, who stopped 9-of-10 shots.
Tonight's test marks the first of two straight on the road for Toronto, which is 8-8-2 as the visiting club this year. The Leafs have won three of their last four road tests and will also visit the Washington Capitals on Monday.
Toronto earned a home win over the Isles on December 8 in the first of four meetings between the clubs this season. The Leafs have taken the last two encounters, but New York has won five of eight overall in the series. The Isles have also won six of eight matchups at the Coliseum.
