Mathew Barzal scores as Islanders beat Coyotes

NEW YORK — Mathew Barzal scored a power-play goal in the second period, and the New York Islanders beat the Arizona Coyotes 1-0 on Tuesday night.

Ilya Sorokin had 14 saves in his first shutout of the season. Noah Dobson and Kyle Palmieri each picked up an assist on the game's only goal in the Islanders' second straight win.

"We were really good in the (offensive zone)," Islanders captain Anders Lee said. "If our forecheck is good and we have an offensive-zone shift, they are getting the puck out and looking to change.
