Islanders rookie Victor Eklund holds own versus Auston Matthews’ line

TORONTO — The most surprised person to learn that Victor Eklund made the Islanders roster out of camp might have been Victor Eklund himself. Even late in the preseason, once it became an open secret that he’d made the team, Eklund didn’t let himself get caught up in it. So when he was told he’d be with the Islanders as they opened the season on Wednesday here in Toronto with a 2-1 loss to the Leafs, he felt the full weight of the accomplishment.
