It was a key win for a team playing 22 of its first 34 games at Barclays Center, including their current run of 10 of 11 at home.It was a good win for us, especially at home, said Boychuk, who has 38 career goals.

Dylan Strome, 19, was the third overall pick by the Coyotes in the 2015 draft and made his debut earlier this week. Ryan Strome, 23, was the fifth overall pick in the Islanders in the 2011 draft.Seidenberg opened the scoring at 4:45 of the first with his first goal as an Islander, rifling the puck past Domingue after a cross-ice pass from Casey Cizikas.

Authentic Will Dissly Jersey . -- Jakob Silfverberg is making himself right at home with the Anaheim Ducks, scoring four goals in his first four games. Great Britains six-time Olympic gold medallist Jason Kenny could cement his place as the greatest track cyclist of all time by doubling his tally at the next two Games, according to the man whose record he equalled in Rio.Sir Chris Hoy, whose title as Britains most successful Olympian was matched by Kenny adding three golds in Brazil last month, believes the 28-year-old is likely to continue to dominate the sport for years to come.He is only 28 now. I was 28 when I won my first Olympic gold medal and hes got six, Hoy told the Press Association.In theory he could go on for another two Games and could win the same again at each of those.He has potential to win another six gold medals, which is incredible.The future for British cycling in general continues to be bright also.Every time the team perform at that level you think That was brilliant but we cant expect that next time and they go out and do it again, added Hoy, a Sky Ride Ambassador speaking at Sky Ride Glasgow.We can maintain our status as the top nation in track cycling for the foreseeable future, certainly for the next Olympic cycle and for a long time if we keep the investment and keep focusing on the younger riders coming into the programme.If funding is cut that is when you start to have issues.The clamour which accompanied the British gold rush across all sports in Rio, not just cycling, continued on their arrival back home with athletes from all disciplines in demand for media and commercial opportunities.Cycling has a fair share of stars who returned with enhanced marketability but Hoy does not see Kenny, who famously likes to keep a low profile, being distracted by off-track demands.It is a benefit to a sport if you have a number of household names, Hoy said.Cycling now has a dozen who the public would know straight away and that has to help with the marketing of the sport.I never missed training from doing commercial stuff but you certainly miss some rest periods and that wwas the hardest thing.ddddddddddddThe media interest and additional demands mean your time is so scarce and in the background your rivals, who have not had this success and dont have this demand on their time, are working to knock you off your perch.That is the biggest risk for athletes, getting the balance right.Of course reap the rewards because they have survived on a pretty measly budget for a number of years and they have the chance to commercially capitalise on it now.You have to weigh it up against the downside, the more you do of that the harder it is to recover from your training.It depends on the individual and how much they are prepared to work outside their sport.The task of building on the sports success from the last two Olympics in particular has already begun with Hoy one of a number of cyclists - including four-time Olympic gold medallist and Kennys soon-to-be-wife Laura Trott - writing to Prime Minister Theresa May to ask for more investment in infrastructure.British Cycling have their own recreational cycling programmes, which can be found at goskyride.com, but Hoy believes more has to be done to help everyday cyclists get - and stay - on bikes.We sent the letter to Theresa May to put up meaningful funding to allow cyclists to ride safely and encourage more people to take up cycling as the biggest concern is safety, he said.There are so many spin-offs: the health benefit to the nation, reducing the strain on the NHS, getting more people into the sport who could potentially win medals.To ask for five percent commitment of the transport budget is really not that much in what it could mean long-term for the country.It is not a fad which is going to fade away whenever we stop winning medals, we are going to keep winning medals and that is going to keep the sport in the forefront of peoples minds.
