Certainly it did not cross anybody’s mind that the Islanders would somehow get even worse at four-on-five.
Bad enough that even the unluckiest of goals at four-on-five, like Philip Tomasino’s shot that deflected in on Sunday for a goal credited to Evgeni Malkin, feels like a hollow excuse.
Malkin made it a daily double at 6:57 of the third, making it 3-0 with the eventual game-winner two seconds before Kyle MacLean’s cross-checking penalty was set to expire.“We’ve made some changes, some key points,” Jean-Gabriel Pageau told The Post. “I think everyone’s on the same page right now, which helps a lot. That second one they got, I thought we played it well. … The power play will get some goals sometimes. Tonight it made a difference, that bounce.
