PHILADELPHIA _ Maybe it was the ridiculously cosmic bounce that led to the Flyers first goal. Maybe it was coming up against Jakob Voracek, who leveled Johnny Boychuk earlier this month. Or maybe it was the frustration of watching two five-on-threes evaporate into nothing.
Whatever it was, the Islanders found something that had been missing for the last few days on Saturday afternoon. Barry Trotz called it resilience. The game's savior, Josh Bailey, called it confidence. Whatever it was, it added up to a big 4-2 win over the Flyers at the Wells Fargo Center and a hope in the Islanders dressing room that they'll be able to right the ship as the regular season draws to a close.
Bailey, who hadn't scored in the previous 12 games, broke the drought with 3:57 left in the game, gathering the pass from Brock Nelson and sniping a shot over Carter Hart to break a tie at 2. A little over a minute later, he added the garnish _ a one-timer on an assist from Leo Komarov that sealed it for the Isles.
