The New York Islanders went to Pittsburgh and secured the two points they needed but my god. My god.
It’s no longer even funny in a gallows humor kind of way (or is it?), as they once again blew a two-goal third-period lead before salvaging the game with Adam Pelech’s overtime goal. The Penguins lost the game at home, but they come away feeling good thanks to their comeback to get a regulation point.
They did some good things. Had a good first period despite exiting it trailing 1-0. Responded well in the second, initiated by Brock Nelson hilariously making both Penguins Swedish blueliners look like pee wee defenders.
