Islanders halt losing skid with shootout win over Flames
CALGARY, Alberta — A 5-4 shootout win over the Calgary Flames on Saturday halted a seven-game losing streak for a New York Islanders team hungry for victory.
Playing their third road game in four nights, the Isles didn't blink when the Flames evened the score twice in the third period. Oliver Wahlstrom roofed the puck in the fourth round for the Islanders' first shootout victory this season.
"We've been through a lot, not just in this tough stretch, but over the years this group's been challenged with a lot of different things," Islanders captain Anders Lee said.
