Trevor Moore scored on an overtime power play to give the
host Los Angeles Kings a 3-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on
Friday and a 2-1 lead in their Western Conference first-round
playoff series.
Alex Iafallo and Adrian Kempe also scored for the Kings, who reached
overtime thanks to an outstanding 38-save performance from
goaltender Joonas Korpisalo. He stopped all 17 shots he faced in the
third period.
Both Los Angeles victories in the series have come in overtime, and
both after erasing a deficit.
Connor McDavid scored twice for the Oilers, and goalie Stuart
Skinner stopped 28 shots. Defenseman Evan Bouchard collected two
assists.
Islanders 5, Hurricanes 1
Kyle Palmieri and Matt Martin scored in a 44-second span late in the
third period to spark a historic outburst by host New York, which
beat Carolina in Game 3 of an Eastern Conference first-round playoff
series in Elmont, N.Y.
Palmieri redirected a shot by Sebastian Aho as the Islanders' fifth
power play of the game expired with 3:51 left before Martin added
the insurance goal for New York. Scott Mayfield scored an
empty-netter with 1:49 left and Anders Lee scored 16 seconds later.
The four goals in 2:17 marked the fastest four-goal flurry in NHL
playoff history.
Casey Cizikas scored in the second for the Islanders, who were
playing their first playoff game at two-year-old UBS Arena. Goalie
Ilya Sorokin made 30 saves. Jesper Fast scored in the second for the
Hurricanes, while Antti Raanta recorded 32 saves. Game 4 is Sunday
afternoon in Elmont.
Bruins 4, Panthers 2
Linus Ullmark made 29 saves as top-seeded Boston defeated host
Florida in a first-round playoff series in Sunrise, Fla.
