During his first two NHL seasons, Simon Holmstrom used to catch himself overthinking things on the ice.<\/p>\n
In some ways, that came down to a lack of experience, with Holmstrom needing to gain confidence and often being told to shoot more often.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think a lot of people go through that process once or twice in their career,\u201d Holmstrom told The Post before the Islanders\u2019 2-1 win over the Golden Knights on Tuesday. \u201cEspecially last year, overthinking things. Now I go out there and play with confidence and play my game. I think that\u2019s been the biggest part this season.\u201d<\/p>\n
Not just this season, but the past six weeks in particular. <\/p>\n
Holmstrom \u2014 who missed some games with injury over that span \u2014 came into Tuesday with 14 points in his past 15 games dating back to mid-December. <\/p>\n
He did not have a point in the Islanders\u2019 win on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
In 46 games this season, Holmstrom has scored more points than he did in 75 a year ago, and he looks like a threat to reach 20 goals for the first time. <\/p>\n
The way Holmstrom got back into form right away coming off the injury also stood out in contrast to other Islanders who have been hurt this season. <\/p>\n
He scored in his second game back and has averaged nearly a point per game over eight contests since returning.<\/p>\n
For an Islanders team that lacks scoring depth, this was a crucial next step for the 23-year-old Swede to make.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think when you play more, you get more ice time, you get a couple goals in and a couple points, it definitely helps,\u201d Holmstrom said. \u201cJust the confidence level, I think, is the biggest thing. I think that\u2019s been the biggest reason [for] this season.\u201d<\/p>\n
For Holmstrom to eventually crack the top six, he still needs to assert himself offensively a little more \u2014 yes, it would still be nice for him to shoot the puck more often \u2014 but he\u2019s turned himself into a key part of the team\u2019s third line and built a strong rapport with Jean-Gabriel Pageau.<\/p>\n
\u201cExperience, that\u2019s all,\u201d coach Patrick Roy said. \u201cI think he\u2019s learning the league more. I think he takes advantage of it. He knows the league. Sometimes it\u2019s just time. I think in his case, experience makes a big difference.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ilya Sorokin was back in nets for the Islanders after sitting out Sunday\u2019s game at Florida and had 33 saves in Tuesday\u2019s win. <\/p>\n
Hudson Fasching (upper body) was on the ice for morning skate, evidently having finished a conditioning stint with AHL Bridgeport.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
