Flyers win over Islanders with 3-2 (3) Tavares, who scored for the first time since Jan. 16, broke a 17-game scoreless drought when he flicked his rebound past Michael Leighton in the first period. Okposo gave New York a 2-0 lead in the second period with a slap shot. He said:" Being a goal-scorer and an offensive guy, it's always nice to contribute. To get one finally it's nice, but it's time to move forward." Roloson said:" I thought we played well. We did the things we had to do to win a hockey game. It doesn't matter who we play- it's a team. They put their equipment on. They put their jerseys on. They play the game just like we do, so we can't mentally or physically worry about what they have done in the past."
This late in the season, with the Flyers challenging for playoff position, every point is huge. Laviolette said:" We're trying to keep it simple, only worry about one game at a time, and not get caught up in a big picture. The Islanders just beat Chicago, they could've beat Boston. They're a good hockey team, and can beat anybody. We did a good job staying in this game here and staying focused." News for Monday 08 March, 2010
