Highlights from the Islanders’ 6-3 season-ending Game 5 loss to the Hurricanes.
Three stars
1. Jack Drury
Drury set up a second-round matchup against his uncle Chris’ Rangers with a spur-of-the-moment snipe from the left dot to break a 3-3 tie and score the game-winning goal early in the third period.
2. Seth Jarvis
Playing on a revamped second line with Jordan Staal and Teuvo Teravainen, Jarvis notched two assists and had his best all-around game of the series, adding an empty-net goal late.
3. Ryan Pulock
The defenseman contributed a pair of secondary assists and was a regular offensive presence for the Islanders all night.
Key moment
Carolina’s two goals in eight seconds early in the third period killed all hope for the Islanders and ultimately ended their season.
