Matt Moulson is the type of player that has a knack for scoring. Over an eight day period, culminating Sat. Dec. 3, Moulson tallied seven goals in four games on the road. He scored one goal in each of the first three contests and added four more on Saturday night to lift the Islanders over the Dallas Stars, 5-4.

Being the first player in the National Hockey League this season to score four goals in one game earned the Isles winger recognition across the league, as he was awarded First Star of the Week honors for the first time in his career Monday.

“I probably owe a lot of it to my linemates,” said a humble Moulson. “They did more than I did out there. It was a good win for the team. That’s the biggest thing.”
