Artemi Panarin scored 10 seconds into overtime and the Rangers beat the crosstown-rival Islanders 6-5 in a Stadium Series game at MetLife Stadium on Sunday. Rangers coach Peter Laviolette was behind the bench for his fifth outdoor game, tying Joel Quenneville for the most in NHL history, and got his first win in the open air. The Islanders pulled four points behind Detroit for the second wild card in the Eastern Conference. After the Rangers pulled within one in the second period, Romanov pushed the Islanders’ lead back up to 5-3 at 1:53 of the third. The Rangers then had a 4-on-3 power play with just under six minutes to go, and Laviolette pulled Shesterkin for a two-man advantage.

The New York Islanders fired coach Lane Lambert and replaced him with Hall of Fame goaltender Patrick Roy. President of hockey operations and general manager Lou Lamoriello announced the stunning move Saturday. The Islanders have lost four games in a row and six of seven to fall out of a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Lambert was midway through his second season on the job. Roy coached the Colorado Avalanche for three seasons from 2013-16 before abruptly resigning a month before training camp.

Ilya Sorokin made 30 saves in two periods for the Islanders, setting a career high by starting an 11th consecutive game. He let in a short-handed goal by Eriksson Ek and Foligno's flip-in in the final minute. The Islanders took six penalties, and Zuccarello and Eriksson Ek scored on the power play. The Islanders, who have lost four of their last five games, have also dropped six consecutive games to the Wild. Eriksson Ek had gone 10 straight games without scoring.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — The crowd chants for Marc-Andre Fleury started in the second period and filled the arena again in the waning minutes, as the Minnesota Wild goalie closed in on a long-sought milestone. Fleury recently became the fourth goalie to play in 1,000 games. Then he gave the Wild another highlight in a season that has been short on them. I was so happy to play that first game,” said Fleury, drafted first overall by the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2003. Two of Fleury's three children — the other was recovering from tonsil surgery — greeted him at his stall in the Wild locker room afterward.
