   Jason Robertson tied the game up 1-1, scoring his 16th goal of the season. Joe Pavelski passed the puck to Robertson, he put it between his legs before shooting and getting the puck past Sorokin. Nils Lundkvist gets one in with a one-timer from the right point, going through the legs of Pavelski and right under the glove of Sorokin - 4:52 remaining in the second period.


   Hudson Fasching ties up the game in the third period, 2-2, with his third goal of the season. Noah Dobson shot the puck from the right point and it deflected in off Fasching's leg. The Stars and Islanders head into overtime with a 2-2 score.


   Bo Horvat wins it for the New York Islanders at 4:19 in overtime.
