The Toronto Maple Leafs travel to face the New York Islanders on Monday, November 23, 2026. Puck drop is scheduled for 7:30 PM ET as the two clubs meet for their third matchup of the regular season.
Toronto enters the contest with an 8-9-2 record and is winless in three straight games (0-3-0). The Maple Leafs opened their recent five-game stretch with a 5-4 loss at the Seattle Kraken and a 4-2 win at the Vancouver Canucks. They have since dropped three consecutive home contests, falling 3-2 to the Utah Mammoth, 4-2 to the Montreal Canadiens, and 4-0 to the New Jersey Devils.
New York brings a 7-6-3 record into the matchup and also enters on a three-game winless streak (0-2-1). The Islanders earned consecutive road victories earlier in the month, edging the Nashville Predators 4-3 in a shootout and defeating the Minnesota Wild 4-3 in overtime. Since returning home, New York lost 4-0 to the Edmonton Oilers, 5-3 to the Carolina Hurricanes, and 5-4 in overtime to the New Jersey Devils.
The season series between the teams is tied at one win apiece. Toronto won the first meeting 2-1 on September 30. The Islanders evened the series on October 17 with a 4-1 victory.
Both squads look to reverse recent slides on Monday. Toronto seeks its first win since beating Vancouver, while New York aims to halt a three-game skid on home ice.
