QUEENS, NY -- The New York Islanders leadership group is set for the 2025-26 season. Anders Lee returns as the club's captain for an eighth season, with Bo Horvat donning the "A" for a second straight year after serving as the Vancouver Canucks captain from 2019 until joining the Islanders on Jan. 31 of 2023.

New York Islanders head coach Patrick Roy was pleased with the team's 5-4 comeback win over the Ottawa Senators on Saturday night.

Bo Horvat tied it short-handed in the second period, scored the go-ahead goal on the power play and finished off the hat trick with an empty-netter in the final seconds to help the New York Islanders pick up their first win of the season by rallying to defeat the Edmonton Oilers 4-2.

Islanders captain Anders Lee and head coach Patrick Roy agreed their 5-4 win over Ottawa left something to be desired defensively but Lee's goal with just over a minute to go in regulation got the Isles the two points they were looking for.
