NHL Game 1 Highlights | Islanders vs. Hurricanes - April 17, 2023

foreigner on the ice now shot from Shea's point was blocked in the way by Hudson hitting who is hit by Shea at center ice now Brett Pesci guarding Zach Parisi tried to work it into the net and Raptor kicks to the side that is attacking, but this is what the Islanders are trying to do: put pucks deep and then go to the net. They have to play records. They need to take some of that volume. Hudson sits in his playoff debut and the Hurricanes carry the power. plays in a one-time four Sebastian Ajo Carolina the advantage here in the first of the Islanders step out and then flutterbuck doesn't come back and cover that gap passing to Zika, so it's a lovely feed from Brent Burns to Sebastian who makes no mistake and called for quick scans and exits for Shane's gas desperation. to the wing for Jordan Martino Foss charging shots from the boss and sarokkin to stop inside the Blue Line look at the way the bull Duke backs up he's got a good position here but he's got a player going through right there yeah y'all So Matt Barzell 13 on the half wall on the opposite side Horvath worked it towards the net for Andersley and just after the Hop, good opportunity for this advantage manned by the Islanders, he threw the pass forward for a tip from Anders Lee, but it is the weak side play. works it there in the entrance to Lee pushes it back to the point Nelson moves it along Horvat for Lee and a Ranta denial Puck bounced and now clear moved towards Puck some quick touches here big opportunities and Anti-rat closes the door. sends it back to Engvall closing in with 10 seconds left on the Islanders power play Engvall at the top of the circle towards the net looking for a tip there from the yard Andres Fetchnikov, the 23-year-old All-Star, of course, who just over five weeks ago suffered that ACL tear and here's Nature's shot at Saroka on the stoppage on a breakaway bid here's the pass he was talking about deep in his own Zone across two lines just in the Nature wrestling match tape that takes place on the corner between Martinook and Anders, they leave. they will finally get to their skates Fox slides and lifts by code Kitty Emmy from point blank range now advances on a one-time whistle by Brady Shea Keynes with the early goal Isle behind who is going to establish momentum here to start this point Neches returned for the coach yemi and Mason had a golden opportunity and didn't score the way this Puck gets picked up out of the air and stays alive and then they go to work, they have some fresh legs and well, fast. backdoors to Jarvis at mid-wall on the edge of the circle near the goal line markers for Nason and back to Jarvis Burns slides it for Neches drops for burns a drive scores a second goal of the

game

power for Carolina and the lead is two well, it is the power play that attacks again what was an anemic power play is now a powerful power play and this is simply a behind the back pass and a single pass that we talked about AJ mentioned this the Carolina defenseman's goals that puck looks like it tipped in the way, you see Burns Point immediately in Nason, how beautiful, that's a beautiful tip, it's hard to score five on five, so those are the moments decisive moments of the

game

and so far the Kings have made the most of it, it's interesting. in the season series between these two teams zero power play goals were scored and the right winger the Islanders scored the deflection and how about that response from the Islanders to get on the board and kind of a broken play?

Carolina thinks they are going to come out and then Pollock just puts the puck in the net and Ronda misuses it, just 24 seconds after Carolina's second goal Rasa puts it in her own net, a little change oh Bullock, totally a fan of this one shot, look at this, it comes off the heel. that's what's been confusing Rancic over the course of the last few days and you said this before. AJ and Rob Brendamore also told us at some point, he said there's a good chance I'll see Anderson and Ranta making a stop at Barzell the Islanders.

Dobson, taking a page from that book, gives that puck to Horvath behind all the Kings players. Barzel uses his slavin speed up front looking for Martin Nook with a backhand and then stole it tonight Sorokin converts a pain attempt. Can the backhand save kicked out by Sorokin also the Islanders offensive zone right here by Sam Bolduc, he can't handle that Puck and it's Jordan Stahl who can use his body to control it and then it's just this one, Jacob Slavin, he's not known for offensive rebounds. Puck settles. down on Neches is standing out Sent to the center comes forward Puck is loose and white open this they finished the period with this too good job of patches to jump on the play we talked about friend Dominic Moore AJ molesko I'm Mike Monaco as we start the third and we meet at PNC Arena in the first game and historically we invest in seven series, the winner of the first game wins the series 68 of the times Jordan Stall's line has been in his face all of them.

The game was back in front with a backhand for Lee and he rotted to the end on that top line from the beginning, this is the opportunity, sorry, Mike of the barzel quick pass. Lee tries to get in with that win on Wednesday and then it felt like a week. waiting in the middle and right up to the stop on Pierre Engvall Pelican Drive is blocked laterally, he just doesn't do it and then another good save for Monty rantes Engvall gets to the 11 to go to the scrum on how to prepare to play the Islanders when you're waiting for barzel Hanging Burns denied by Sirokin still loose on blocked shot up top by Engvall Burns is not excited to return to the Stanley Cup playoffs.

Been having an impact since the puck dropped here Jarvis wins, the puck leaves it for Tara Vinen back to the line Chatfield at the net hit a body on the way and Sorokin kicks to her right and blocks Jarvis' help from her teammates and then this last scrum where he had a lot of pressure and he wants to be someone they can trust. even during the post season to score those big goals, the jackets blocked from the spot, now Pollock carried him again to the back door and sent him wide Anders Lee instead, into the corner, pashi to rescue him, instead, Barzel took it out for Corvette to advance and Nelson, a drive rejected by Ratta, with five seconds left in the quarter.

Carolina tries to put him in the wall, he hits the neck and runs until he stops and that makes the hurricane survive a gust at the goal to take the first foreign game.
