Winner: Nick Leddy

Nick Leddy saved the game for the New York Islanders on Tuesday night. The Islanders needed that win. They’ve played brutally bad this year and they seemed to out play the Ducks for most of the way.

When the game went to a shootout I wasn’t expecting Nick Leddy to shoot. Well when shootout’s go 14 rounds you usually see some wild things.

Leddy also had an assist in that game which is why he’s a winner for this week.

He’s got eight points for the Islanders so far this year, which sadly puts him towards the top of the list for the Islanders. We know what Nick Leddy is and he’s been a big part of this team. Although he’d probably like to get his +/- up.
