The team's defensive struggles have resurfaced at a critical juncture. Coach Patrick Roy expresses dissatisfaction with goalie Ilya Sorokin's performance. Despite lineup changes and efforts, the Islanders continue to struggle, losing their fifth consecutive game to the Carolina Hurricanes with a final score of 4-1.

#Isles fall for a fifth straight game after 4-1 loss to #CauseChaos @TheHockeyNews https://t.co/LQzFy7aKgO
Final. #CauseChaos 4 #Isles 1 SOG: CAR 35 NYI 31 🚨: Jarvis x2, Necas & Guentzel 🧤: Kochetkov saves 30 of 31 Dominating game for the Hurricanes from start to finish. Rangers lose in regulation so that’s two points closer to the first spot in the Metro
Islanders follow winning six in a row with five straight losses (0-4-1). Bad night for them with Flyers and Red Wings winning.
Empty net for #Isles with 4:24 left 3-1 CAR
After 40: No goals this period but the #Canes just suffocating the Islanders. Great overall game by the Hurricanes so far. Not giving NY many chances while just hemming them in their own zone. SOG: #CauseChaos 25 #Isles 20 3-0 CAR | End 2nd
40 minutes down, 20 (or more) to go. No change in score, so it's still 3-0, #Canes. It looked like Carolina was going to tack on at least one more at the start of the period, but Sorokin did his part. Onward to the finish!
End of two #Hurricanes 3 (Jarvis 2, Necas PP) #Isles 0 Hurricanes up on shots 25-20. Isles not being booed off the ice again after the second.
#Isles lines right now: Nelson-Horvat-Palmieri Lee-Barzal-Holmstrom Pageau-Cizikas-Fasching Martin-MacLean-Clutterbuck
Hurricanes up 3-0 and up on shots 24-9 at 10:03 of the second period. 'Canes routinely outshoot the opposition.
Shots were 7-4 #Isles right after their power play ended in the 1st. 24-9 Carolina now, 7 minutes into the 2nd.
Martin Necas beats the first-period buzzer with one second to spare! 😱 https://t.co/z6xn9tIcQQ
Done with 20 minutes on Long Island. 3-0, #Canes! Wow, what a start. Two goals in just over two minutes for Seth Jarvis and then a late one from Martin Necas. The group is rollllllin'.
#Canes GOAL 🚨 Another buzzer beater goal for the Hurricanes! This time it’s Martin Necas with 1.3 seconds left tonight the PP! It’s 3-0 Carolina! #CauseChaos
A healthy booing of the Islanders as they leave the ice, down 3-0 to the Canes after one.
3-0 CAR with 1.1 seconds to play in the first. Necas snipes to the blocker-side corner. #Isles
Sorokin slides over for a big save, hears some chants, then allows Necas to score past his blocker with 1.3 seconds left in the first, 3-0 Hurricanes. I'd expect Varly in the second period.
3-0 CAR with 1.1 seconds to play. Necas snipes to the blocker-side corner. #Isles
Necas hits the highlight reel. Wow. 3-0 Canes.
Necas beats the first period horn off the rush, 3-0 with 1.1 seconds left
Four straight games. 5th in last six games (at this point) and his 24th of the season! What a start by Seth Jarvis & the #Canes! #CauseChaos https://t.co/uhOLG4MNrY
2-0 CAR, Jarvis again. This time off the rush. Four #Isles in the slot, no one takes a stick on a give and go.
2-0 CAR with 5:07 to play in the first as Jarvis scores his second of the game. He cuts to the net, and a few #Isles get caught puck-watching.
#Isles fumble a couple of zone exits for the first time tonight and, naturally, it ends up in their net. Jarvis corrals a shot that banked off Pageau and throws it through Sorokin's pads from a bad angle. 1-0 CAR at 12:48
Underway on Long Island #CauseChaos #Isles 0-0 | 20:00 1st
#Isles vs. #CauseChaos is a go from Elmont.

Before puck drop, catch up on the latest from the @thehockeynews #Isles:
#Isles Ilya Sorokin vs. #CauseChaos Pyotr Kochetkov as warmups are underway at UBS. NYI rocking white and CAR wearing black. The reason is that TOR wore St. Patrick's Day jersey against CAR, so they decided to just bring their black jerseys on their road trip.
