In a perfect world, the New York Islanders win that game last night. Unfortunately, this world is far from perfect, but you can still take some positives out of last night’s 1-0 overtime loss against the Hurricanes.
There’s no way the Islanders are going to win every single playoff game they play. The team’s they play are just too good to continue to win four straight. The way this team lost showed that they can hang with Carolina on any night.
Sure, mistakes were made, including 25 turnovers, but the Islanders were in this game until the very end.
