NextImg:Mathew Barzal’s game-winning goal keeps Islanders alive in first round

Highlights from the Islanders’ 3-2 Game 4 double-overtime victory over the Hurricanes.

The individual effort on Barzal’s first goal — after he’d put together a quiet series to that point — was of the highest level.

Then he doubled it by scoring the game-winner.

Pageau had yet to make his presence felt in the series after returning from injury in Game 2, but did so in the best possible way Saturday, scoring to make it 2-1 early in the third and going 19-for-23 at the dots.

It was never a question that Varlamov would get the net in Game 4, but another outstanding effort from the netminder helped keep the Islanders in this one throughout as Varlamov stopped 42 shots.

Barzal’s goal midway through the second period saved this from being a quiet end to the Islanders’ season and got them enough momentum to extend the series to Game 5.
