Islanders' Bo Horvat exits due to lower-body injury
Nov 23, 2025; Elmont, New York, USA; New York Islanders center Bo Horvat (14) goes in for a shot on goal during a shootout in overtime against the Seattle Kraken at UBS Arena. Mandatory Credit: Wendell Cruz-Imagn Images Bo Horvat, the Islanders' leading scorer, missed the final 33-plus minutes of New York's game against the Anaheim Ducks on Thursday in Elmont, N.Y., because of a lower-body injury.
Horvat, who leads the team with 19 goals and 31 points, twisted his ankle after getting tangled up with Ducks defenseman Drew Helleson and the Islanders near the midpoint of the second period, with the Islanders ahead 3-1. He immediately exited the ice.
The Islanders announced that Horvat was done for the night just before the third period.
The Islanders, who had won four of their previous five games and entered play Thursday in third place in the Metropolitan Division, lost defenseman Alexander Romanov (right shoulder surgery) and right winger Kyle Palmieri (torn left ACL) to season-ending injuries late last month.
