They could have come home with nothing, but the Islanders didn’t let up last night and got two big regulation points in Winnipeg with a dramatic equalizer and winner 33 seconds apart. It was also the seventh time this season they won after tailing 2-0.
That put them two points ahead of Pittsburgh (95) and kept pace three behind the Capitals.
About last night, 5-4 to the good guys, including a pair by Eberle and Cizikas’ 20th:
- What a game, what a persistent comeback, with a bonus Lee tackle of Eberle to cap off the good vibes.
