Take the two points and get the hell out of here.
Yes, it's still October. But it sure is nice having a backup goalie who can win you games.
The New York Islanders had little business walking out of St. Louis with two points from their encounter with the Blues, but thankfully they have Thomas Greiss, John Tavares and Mikhail Grabovski.
Grabovski scored the 3-2 overtime winner and drew the rather stupid first-period penalty that enabled the Isles to strike first, Tavares was given too much space to score the insurance goal the Islanders would very much need to survive the Blues' comeback from an 0-2 deficit, and Greiss provided save after save after save until the game ended with Grabovski -- and not Steve Ott -- smiling in victory.
