Final
Parise, Devils hope to keep rolling vs. woeful Islanders
Feb 21, 2009 - 2:56 PM New Jersey (38-18-3) at NY Islanders (17-35-6), 7:00 pm ESTUNIONDALE, New York (Ticker) -- All-Star Zach Parise and the New Jersey Devils will try to continue their winning ways against the NHL's worst team.
Parise looks to lead the Devils to their fifth win in six games when they visit the lowly New York Islanders on Saturday in a battle of Atlantic Division rivals.
New Jersey, which has won 14 of its previous 17 contests, did not let an early deficit stop its recent trend Thursday. Patrik Elias scored the game-winning goal in the second round of
a shootout, lifting the Devils to a 3-2 triumph over the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Parise also registered his team-leading 35th goal of the season in the third period and Brian Rolston scored in regulation for New Jersey, which faced a two-goal deficit after the opening session.
The Islanders are hoping to avoid their third straight loss following Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes.
Since its season-high four-game winning streak, New York has posted a 1-6-1 record over its last eight contests.
