ELMONT, N.Y. — The Islanders are playing consistent hockey. More importantly, winning hockey.
But they may not play again for another 11 days.
The Islanders beat the Oilers, 3-2, in overtime on Saturday afternoon at UBS Arena as defenseman Noah Dobson’s wrist shot at 3:52 of the extra period was the winner. It was Dobson’s first career overtime goal.
