Alan Quine scores game-winner in double overtime as Islanders prevail
New York Islanders center Alan Quine scored the game-winning goal in the Islanders' 2-1 double overtime win over the Florida Panthers in Game 5.
What It Means:
After 36 minutes of bonus hockey, Quine put an end to the game with his first career playoff goal. The goal was scored on the man-advantage as Panthers' forward Derek MacKenzie was serving a slashing penalty. Marek Zidlicky and Thomas Hickey picked up the assists on the overtime goal. The Islanders will now head home with the opportunity to eliminate the Panthers in Game 6.
Quine, a 23-year-old rookie, played in just two regular season games this year, scoring one goal. In addition to the game-winner, he also has an assist in the series.
