‘The Islanders, though, would not have won this game, and will not win others, without scoring from the point. Based on the early returns, this is a blueliner’s series, with six of the 10 goals coming off the sticks of the defencemen, most of them from a distance. And those shots would have been ineffective without heavy traffic in front of, and around, the crease.’
