Last night the New York Islanders were down 2-1 with just a minute to go in regulation. Against the Buffalo Sabres. The Sabres. A team that has won but nine games so far this season.
The New York Islanders needed this win if they’re going to try and create some separation between them and the teams chasing them in the Group of Death that is the Metropolitan Division.
As the Islanders poured on the pressure late on you can sense that even the crowd knew how important the game was. And then the puck comes to Josh Bailey who seems to make no mistake from the right faceoff dot.
