Islanders' Scott Mayfield: No goals in last 20 games

Mayfield hasn't lit the lamp since Nov. 5 versus Colorado.

Mayfield isn't expected to score on any kind of regular basis, but with the Islanders trying to find secondary scoring, the whole team is under a microscope. Due to the team having eight defenders on the roster for most of the season, Mayfield and several other defensemen have had to be scratched more often than is customary. He has played a season high 11 straight games at this point, but that could change with the expected return of Johnny Boychuk (lower body) to the lineup Thursday in Philadelphia.
