For the first time in the first round, Bo Horvat has been able to answer questions about his play with an optimistic sheen going into Game 6 on Friday against the Hurricanes.Tuesday with a four-on-four assist to Mathew Barzal and, after a quiet-at-best first four games, looked and felt a little more like himself.
Horvat’s scoring touch — he’s netted just one goal in the series and that came late in a Game 3 blowout victory — is still something the Islanders would like to see return. Bo Horvat, pictured earlier in the playoffs, finally reached the scoresheet again with an assist in Game 5.Much as everything else was improved in Game 5, that is still a looming question mark, though he’s hoping Tuesday will be a springboard as the Islanders look to pull off a comeback from a 3-1 deficit in the series.
