    Atlanta (AP) - Nik Antropov had two goals and an assist, and Clarke MacArthur and Evgeny Artyukhin scored in their Atlanta debuts to help the Thrashers beat the New York Islanders 6-3 on Thursday night.

    Niclas Bergfors, another recent acquisition, also scored. He has five goals in seven games since being obtained as part of the Ilya Kovalchuk trade with New Jersey.

    MacArthur was acquired from Buffalo on Wednesday in a trade for two draft choices. Artyukhin came from Anaheim for a minor leaguer and a draft pick Monday.

    Maxim Afinogenov also scored for Atlanta, 4-0-2 in its last six games. Bryan Little and Ron Hainsey each had two assists, and Johan Hedberg made 34 saves. Mark Streit, Rob Schremp and Tim Jackman scored for the Islanders.
