NEW YORK (AP) — Casey Cizikas and Anders Lee each scored twice and the New York Islanders beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 6-3 on Saturday night. Jean-Gabriel Pageau and Anthony Duclair also scored, and Mathew Barzal and Alexander Romanov each had two assists for New York, which had lost three of four. Ilya Sorokin finished with 22 saves.
Sidney Crosby broke Mario Lemieux’s Pittsburgh franchise career record for assists on Michael Bunting’s power-play goal and the Penguins beat the New York Islanders 3-2 on Sunday night.
The New York Islanders (16-18-7) made a statement last night in Las Vegas, defeating the Vegas Golden Knights (28-10-3) 4-0. Vegas entered as the top team in the NHL, yet they found themselves completely outmatched and outplayed by the Islanders in their own building.
Brock Nelson and Anders Lee are not the most dangerous duo the Pittsburgh Penguins have had to face when playing the New York Islanders.

PITTSBURGH -- Sidney Crosby got his 1,034th NHL assist, passing Mario Lemieux for the most in the history of the Pittsburgh Penguins in a 3-2 win against the New York Islanders at PPG Paints Arena on Sunday.
