John Tavares' OT winner capped a 3-2 comeback for the New York Islanders, as the Islanders picked up a crucial two points in a rebound win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday night.
Tavares took a drop pass from Josh Ho-Sang and snapped a wrister from the high slot past Cam Ward 34 seconds into OT. The Islanders captain finished a comeback effort that started with a pair of game-saving stops by Thomas Greiss and a pair of goals from Ho-Sang and Jason Chimera 25 seconds apart at the end of the second period.
