The New York Islanders skated to a 2-1 shootout win over the Boston Bruins to extend their home point streak and their hold on first place in the NHL's East Division. Anthony Beauvillier scored the winner in the shootout. We analyze how the Islanders won the game and why they are red hot right now.

We also mark a major milestone for Barry Trotz as he coaches in his 1,700th NHL game, becoming only the third coach to accomplish that feat. We discuss what makes Trotz so successful and how he's impacted the Islanders.

All this and much more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
