Mathew Barzal scores in 2nd OT as Islanders beat Hurricanes 3-2 to avoid series sweep

Associated Press  

NEW YORK — Mathew Barzal capped a solid all-around effort by the New York Islanders with their season on the line to get a big win. Barzal scored his second goal of the game on a deflection 1:24 into the second overtime and the Islanders beat the Carolina Hurricanes 3-2 in Game 4 on Saturday to avoid a sweep in their first-round playoff series. “It was a good game, two teams played hard,” Hurricanes coach Rod Brind’Amour said. It was the Islanders’ second goal on six power plays in the series against a Hurricanes team that was first in the league on the penalty kill during the season. “You never know in playoffs you throw a puck on net what’s going to happen.” Less than two minutes later, Orlov had a shot from the right side go off Varlamov’s mask, and the goalie also had to make several nice saves late in the last 4 1/2 minutes of the period to keep it tied.
