Bo Horvat News: Scores hat trick Thursday

Horvat had a hat trick, including one goal with the man advantage, in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Oilers.

Horvat didn't score a goal in any of the Islanders' first three games of the season, but he ended that skid with a dominant performance. The 30-year-old opened his tally with a shorthanded goal late in the second period, and he'd later add a power-play marker and an empty-netter to round out the scoring. Horvat hasn't cracked the scoresheet in two of the Islanders' four games so far, but when he's done it, he's made his presence felt. Through four contests, the center has five points already -- with three of them coming on the power play.
