Bailey shows off playmaking skills in Isles’ win February 24, 2017
Josh Bailey was once again front and center in an Islanders victory last night, dishing out two assists in a 3-0 defeat of the Montreal Canadiens. The Bowmanville, Ontario-native contributed to one of the NHL’s goals of the night, making a slick, backhanded pass to his teammate Anders Lee in the second period that put New York up 2-0 at the time. He finished the game with 2 points, 4 blocked shots and a +2 rating. Through 60 games this season, the big-bodied winger has already set new career highs in points (43) and assists (31).
