The Bruins have won three straight and four of their last five as they head to New York to take on the Islanders Tuesday.

Recent winning streaks for both teams have allowed them to bank points in the competitive Eastern Conference, where 12 of the 16 teams entered Monday with either 13 or 14 points.

The Bruins have been off since Saturday, when they held off the Hurricanes, 2-1, while the Islanders earned a dramatic win Sunday afternoon, scoring twice in the final 67 seconds of the third period to stun the Blue Jackets, 3-2.

The three-game winning streak, which began Oct. 28 with a 5-2 win over the Islanders, is the second of the season for the Bruins, who also endured a six-game losing streak from Oct. 13 to 23.

Notes: The Bruins haven’t trailed in either of their last two wins. … The Islanders have also run hot and cold during the first month of the season. New York opened the season with three straight regulation losses before earning four consecutive wins. … The Islanders ended a three-game losing streak (0-2-1) Friday, when they beat the Capitals, 3-1. New York outshot Columbus 39-22 Sunday but appeared headed for a hard-luck loss before defenseman Matthew Schaefer, the reigning NHL Rookie of the Month, scored a 6-on-5 goal with 1:07 left. Simon Holmstrom then scored off a Blue Jackets’ turnover with 38 seconds remaining for the Islanders, who won in regulation after trailing in the final two minutes for just the second time in franchise history.
