While many are forgotten in time, some games instantly become etched in fans' memory banks for a long time. Saturday night falls in the latter category for fans of the New York Islanders. Matt Moulson made sure of that.
1 Matt Moulson, New York Islanders – Moulson scored four goals in New York’s 5-4, win over the Dallas Stars. John Tavares and P.A. Parenteau each had three assists, Dylan Reese scored New York’s other goal and Al Montoya stopped 13 of 13 shots after Rick DiPietro left the game because of a groin injury in the third period.
2 Matt Read, Philadelphia Flyers – Read tallied a goal and two assists in Philly’s 4-2 win over the Phoenix Coyotes. Wayne Simmonds, Claude Giroux and Scott Hartnell scored in a four-goal first period and Ilya Bryzgalov stopped 36 of 38 shots for the win.
3 Stephen Weiss, Florida Panthers – Weiss scored a goal and assisted on two others as the Panthers dispatched the Sharks 5-3. Marco Sturm, Jack Skille, Tomas Fleischmann and Dmitry Kulikov also scored for Florida and Scott Clemmensen stopped 23 of 26 shots to get the win.
