Rosenhof: Story » Deryk Engelland also beat Nabokov but couldnt

PITTSBURGH -- The New York Islanders know 10 stunning minutes of hockey cant take away the sting of last springs playoff loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins. Still, its a start. Josh Baileys goal with 1:40 left capped a furious third-period rally, and the Islanders edged the Penguins 4-3 on Friday night. Bailey took a feed from Frans Nielsen in front of the net and beat goalie Jeff Zatkoff for his fourth goal of the season. The Islanders scored three times in the final 7:14 and erased deficits of 2-1 and 3-2 to win for just the second time in seven games. "Its always satisfying against a divisional rival and a great team like Pittsburgh, and maybe a little bit added because of the playoffs," Bailey said. "But its just one regular-season win. Well see if we can build some momentum." Nielsen, Matt Moulson and Pierre-Marc Bouchard also scored for New York, and defenceman Radek Martinek had two assists in his season debut. Evgeni Nabokov stopped 39 shots against the team that tormented him at times during a spirited first-round playoff series. Pittsburghs Sidney Crosby scored his eighth goal of the season and now has an NHL-high 18 points. Jussi Jokinen and Deryk Engelland also beat Nabokov but couldnt stop the Penguins from losing their second straight. Pittsburgh went 0 for 5 on the power play and is 0 for 12 with the man advantage the last two games. "We had some chances to build on our lead, and we didnt," Crosby said. "We made some mistakes and they made us pay." Zatkoff, playing in his second NHL game, made 21 saves. Pittsburgh dominated the games first 50 minutes, peppering Nabokov relentlessly. The veteran hung in long enough for New Yorks lifeless offence to get going. Nielsen evened it 2-2 with 7:14 remaining on a nifty deflection. The tie lasted all of 16 seconds as Engelland -- a defenceman being used as a fourth-line forward due to Penguins injuries -- crashed the net for his first goal in 61 games. New York, however, kept coming. Shortly after Engellands tally, Bouchard took advantage of a Pittsburgh turnover deep in its own end and deked his way by Zatkoff to make it 3-3. "I think that (Engellands goal) easily could have taken the wind out of our sails," Bailey said. "What a move by Bouchard on the breakaway staying patient. Sometimes in that situation, you want to fire it, and he just held onto it and made a great play." The Penguins defence gave Bailey two chances to bury the game-winner. Zatkoff made a sprawling save to stop Bailey on the doorstep, but the goalie couldnt grab the rebound. Nielsen immediately fed Bailey again and he kept jabbing at the puck until it found its way behind Zatkoff. That set off a celebration on the Islanders bench. "We know even when were not playing our best weve found a way to stay in games and give ourselves a chance. That was the case tonight," Bailey said. The meeting was the first between the teams since the playoffs. The heavily favoured Penguins survived in six games, winning the clincher on Brooks Orpiks overtime goal. Moulson gave the Islanders the early lead on Friday, getting his own rebound in front of Zatkoff and backhanding the puck into an open net 10:14 into the first period. The Penguins needed barely three minutes to tie it as Jokinen beat Nabokov for his fifth goal of the season and his 12th in 20 regular-season games with Pittsburgh. Crosby put the Penguins in front six minutes into the second period when he and Chris Kunitz broke loose for a 2-on-1 rush. Crosbys wrist shot from the right circle found a sliver of space between Nabokovs pad and his blocker before sneaking inside the far post. Pittsburghs constant buzzing took some of the pressure off Zatkoff, a rookie who struggled in his only other start, a sloppy 6-3 loss to Florida on Oct. 11. While Zatkoff was certainly steadier than in his NHL debut, he couldnt get a glove on Nielsens beautiful deflection that sparked New Yorks scintillating finish. Nielsen, who added two assists, has a team-high 14 points. "A lot of times (Nielsen) is where he needs to be," Capuano said. "Its no surprise hes accumulating points because of the way he plays."
