After the Islanders’ 2-0 loss, Patrick Roy made a point of mentioning that turnovers exiting the defensive zone have been a persistent issue.
DALLAS — Mostly, Patrick Roy stuck to an optimistic tone after the Islanders lost their second straight game to open the season.
“I just think the more we’re going to play, the better we’re going to get,” Roy said. “Sometimes we just need to be a little more heavy on our stick and simplify, maybe, some of our decisions.”The second of three Dallas goals on Saturday came right after the puck went off Max Tsyplakov’s stick as the Islanders tried to exit the zone.
