Toews gets 1st point in 2 1/2 years, Jets have 5 players score in win over Islanders
By Canadian Press on October 13, 2025.
ELMONT, N.Y. (AP) — Jonathan Toews recorded
his first point in nearly 2 1/2 years on an assist, and the Winnipeg Jets had five different players score goals in a 5-2 win over the New York Islanders on Monday.
Logan Stanley, Mark Scheifele, Nino Niederreiter, Morgan Barron and Tanner Pearson scored for the Jets.
Gustav Nyquist and Toews, who missed the past two seasons because of the effects of
chronic immune response syndrome and long COVID, assisted Niederreiter’s power-play goal about halfway through the first period.
Emil Heineman and Jean-Gabriel Pageau each scored for the Islanders.
Eric Comrie stopped 33 shots for the Jets. Ilya Sorokin had 21 saves for the Islanders, who went scoreless on five power plays.
The Islanders remain winless at 0-3-0, having allowed 13 goals to start the season. The Jets are 2-1-0.
