Islanders Overcome Early Deficit to Defeat Hurricanes in OT Thriller

Brock Nelson's overtime goal secures New York's fourth consecutive win and keeps their playoff hopes alive.

The New York Islanders rallied from a 2-0 deficit to beat the Carolina Hurricanes 3-2 in overtime, extending their winning streak to a season-high four games.
Brock Nelson scored the game-winning goal 2:03 into overtime following a turnover by Carolina's Andrei Svechnikov.
Islanders goalie Marcus Hogberg made 24 saves before leaving the game with a hand injury; Ilya Sorokin replaced him in overtime and stopped the only shot he faced.
Alexander Romanov and Anders Lee also scored for the Islanders, with Lee tying the game in the third period after sustained offensive pressure.
The Hurricanes, who debuted recent trade acquisitions Mikko Rantanen and Taylor Hall, saw their four-game winning streak snapped despite goals from Jack Roslovic and Sebastian Aho.
