Play: (NYI) Victor Eklund Anytime Goal (+240) at Fanduel

Victor Eklund continues to impress in his rookie season, scoring in four consecutive games and six of his last ten. The 20-year-old has seven goals through 18 games, ranking second on the Islanders and tied for second among NHL rookies. Eklund has developed excellent chemistry with Brayden Schenn, who has picked up an assist on six of his seven goals this season.

While Anaheim has been outstanding offensively, the Ducks haven't been nearly as impressive at the other end of the ice. Anaheim is allowing 3.68 goals per game, the third-most in the NHL, and owns the league's second-worst team save percentage at .863. Eklund has already taken advantage of this matchup, scoring in the Islanders' 3-2 victory over Anaheim on October 20.

Eklund has registered at least two shots on goal in four consecutive games, converting four of his nine shots during that stretch. The Islanders are coming off a five-goal performance against Los Angeles, and tonight they'll face another vulnerable defensive team. With Eklund scoring in six of his last ten games and finding the back of the net in his only previous meeting with Anaheim, I like the rookie to extend his goal-scoring streak at +240.
