UNIONDALE, N.Y., Nov. 8 (UPI) -- The New York Islanders unleashed a display of firepower against the Atlanta Thrashers Saturday, with six players scoring in a 6-3 victory.

The Isles got goals from Matt Moulson, Blake Comeau, Sean Bergenheim, Andy Sutton, Josh Bailey and Jack Hillen while chasing Atlanta goalie Ondrej Pavelec.

Dwayne Roloson, meanwhile, had a good night in the nets for New York, making 31 saves.

The Islanders took control of the game by notching the final two goals of the first period. Bergenheim registered his first tally of the year at the 13:34 mark, and Hillen's first of the season came with 1:08 left in the initial period.

Comeau continued the assault just 22 seconds into the second period when he scored to extend New York's lead to 4-1.
