The two new defensemen seem to fit in like a glove in a very small sample size. Their ability to see the ice and help the transition games by skating with the puck or moving the puck up the ice with stretch passes fits head coach Patrick Roy 's M.O. to a tee. Both can play quarterback on the power play, a skill the Islanders desperately need.

The 5-10, 175-pound Perunovich logged 18:52 and was a plus-2 with two shots, earning enough of Roy’s trust to play key shifts in the third period. Tony DeAngelo, signed out of the KHL on Friday, played 22:11 with two blocked shots as he also earned his first point as an Islander with an assist in his second game.

Perunovich was acquired from the St. Louis Blues on Monday afternoon, helping to fill the void left by Ryan Pulock’s upper-body injury. It was a whirlwind 24 hours for the 26-year-old, who is expected to make his Islanders debut against Colorado.

The Colorado Avalanche are wrapping up their New York road trip with a matchup against the New York Islanders on Jan. 28, a game where the two teams made plenty of headlines off the ice.
