Islanders' Bo Horvat: Provides game's only goal in win
Rotowire
Horvat netted an even-strength goal on a game-high six shots and went plus-1 in Sunday's 1-0 win over New Jersey.
Horvat was in the right place at the right time when he intercepted a Timo Meier pass in the slot and ripped a shot past Jacob Markstrom late in the second period. The 30-year-old Horvat has scored in back-to-back games, which puts him two goals shy of 30, a mark he has reached in three straight campaigns. New York has two games left on its schedule, so that feat remains a possibility for Horvat. The left-shot center has been productive at even strength in 2024-25, but just seven of his 57 points (28 goals, 29 helpers) have come on the power play, a considerable downturn from the 18 he garnered in 2023-24.

Islanders' Bo Horvat: Seven points in last seven games
Rotowire
Horvat had a goal and an assist in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Flyers on Saturday.
His goal was clutch -- he knotted the game 3-3 with 1:01 remaining in the third period to force overtime. Horvat is a tenacious guy, but his offense has dropped this season after delivering 71 goals and 148 points over the last two years. He currently has 27 goals and 56 points this campaign, but he does have seven points (three goals, four assists) across his last seven appearances. Like every other Islander, Horvat has had a meh season, so this run is a nice way to turn the page. He'll put it behind him in the offseason and bring a fresh aggression to 2025-26.

Islanders' Bo Horvat: Gets team's only goal in loss
Rotowire
Horvat scored the Islanders lone goal in a 4-1 loss to the Lightning on Tuesday.
Horvat's goal was a shortie in the second off a 2-on-1 rush. He sits on top of his team's scoring list with a meager 52 points (73 games). The Isles are pretty much a barren offensive team, and that makes every player a tough activation, Horvat included.

Horvat scored his 24th goal of the season Saturday in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Flames.
Horvat has two goals and an assist during his three-game point streak and has found the scoresheet in four of his last five outings.

For the season, Horvat has accumulated 24 goals and 48 points through 68 appearances. The 29-year-old will be heavily relied upon in Monday's crucial home matchup versus the Blue Jackets.

Islanders' Bo Horvat: Tallies in Saturday's win
Rotowire
Horvat scored a goal on two shots, added three hits and went minus-2 in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Predators.

Horvat is up to 20 goals, 42 points, 172 shots on net, 83 hits and a plus-8 rating across 58 appearances this season, but his recent performance makes him a player to deploy in favorable matchups rather than a sure-fire starter in fantasy.
