If players have the Canadian thought the easy life by pointing to Uniondale for training to face the worst of the circuit after the Devils, they have put your finger in the eye.

Although they had a horrific sequence of 21 games in which they have scored only one victory, the Islanders appear to have recovered their aplomb in the past 10 days.

Including the gain to Canadians, the troupe now known Jack Capuano's victory in four of its last five outings.

"This is not because they occupy the bottom of the table that the Islanders are not a working team. Tonight, we have not matched their intensity, "said Maxim Lapierre CKAC. We will not win the match by playing that way.

"There a lot of parity in this league, "said Mike Cammalleri. When we play well defensively, we get better chances to score. By spending less energy in our territory, we are more effective in enemy territory. "

Pacioretty regrets his actions

The score was 2-0 and the game still within reach when Max Pacioretty Habs in beginning of third period, Mark Eaton has literally stamped in the band. A gesture that earned the American a major penalty plus a game misconduct. Colin Campbell, the head of the National League, probably will consider the sequence to determine whether to suspend the player for the Canadiens.

"I made a mistake, admitted Pacioretty, always on CKAC. When I got near him, he was facing the ramp. I thought he was going to return, but it did not happen. I would love to go back. It's a move that has hurt the team. "

Indeed, the Islanders took the opportunity to" close the books "by bringing the score to 4-0.

But the young man can sleep soundly: the Canadian had not shown much convincing in the two previous periods.
