Islanders' Playoff Hopes Hit by Disallowed Goal in Shootout Loss

The Islanders lost 4-3 in a shootout to the Blue Jackets, earning one point but remaining one point behind the Canadiens for the final wild-card spot.
Players and coach Patrick Roy criticized the NHL's inconsistent goaltender interference rulings, with Roy accusing the league of being reluctant to overturn referee decisions.
