Emil Heineman and Anthony Duclair also scored for the Islanders, while Logan Stanley provided two assists. Frank Nazar was the lone goal scorer for the Blackhawks, who started the season with a losing record of four games out of five. Arvid Soderblom made 15 saves for Chicago. Horvat opened the scoring with a power-play goal in the final minute of the first period. Duclair scored the second goal for New York just 6:44 into the second period. With 2:32 remaining in the third period, Stanley found Duclair again for a third goal, making it 3-0. Nazar scored the game's lone goal for Chicago with 2:32 left in the third. Additionally, Islanders defenseman Alexander Romanov will miss the remainder of the regular season due to a torn ACL in his right knee.
