Four games were on the schedule on Sunday night. Former Islanders are yet again in the fray trying to help their respective teams however they can. FIs were responsible for 5 assists and a shutout. Let us take as look at their contributions from Sunday night:
* Blues' defenseman Eric Brewer assisted on the game winning goal only 27 seconds into the game to help lift St. Louis over the visiting Calgary Flames 3-0. In his 16 games this season, Brewer has 5 points on 1 goal and 4 assists.
* The FI action was heavy on Sunday night as the host Anaheim Ducks downed the Los Angeles Kings 3-2. On the losing side, Derek Armstrong notched an assist on the opening goal. Now 23 games into his season, Armstrong has still not scored a goal. He has 10 assists on the season but is struggling to find net while mired in a 24 game goal-less streak dating back to last season. Ducks' defenseman Mathieu Schneider assisted on the first Anaheim goal. Schneider snapped a 2 game point-less streak, his longest of the season, and now has 9 points (2 goals, 7 assists) on only 9 games this year. Todd Bertuzzi then added the primary assists on the second Ducks' goal and the game winner. With a mere 10 games played this season, Bert has 5 points on 1 goal and 4 assists. This was Bertuzzi's second multi-point game of the season with his prior coming on October 3 (only 3 games in).
* Roberto Luongo turned back 27 shots to record his 2nd shutout of the season as the Vancouver Canucks downed the visiting Chicago Blackhawks 2-0. Recipient of the first star of the game, Luongo improved to 10-9-2 with the win.
