Senators beat the Islanders 3-0, clinch a playoff spot after Red Wings lose
NEW YORK (AP) --- Ridly Greig scored a short-handed goal, Linus Ullmark stopped
all 23 shots he faced and the Ottawa Senators shut out the New York Islanders
3-0 on Saturday.
Ottawa got into the playoffs a few hours later when Detroit lost at home in
regulation to New Jersey and the Red Wings were eliminated. The Islanders'
hopes took another hit with a fifth loss in six games.
Senators captain Brady Tkachuk took a puck up high late in the second period,
returned for one shift in the third and then did not return. Coach Travis Green
said Tkachuk was not feeling well.
Greig made it a 1-0 game with 6:54 remaining in the first. Jake Sanderson
scored in the third, and Michael Amadio sealed it with an empty-netter. The
Islanders went 0 for 5 on the power play.
New York is now 1-1 since firing coach Patrick Roy and hiring Peter DeBoer as
his replacement. Ilya Sorokin allowed two goals on 15 shots.
Up next
Senators: Visit the Devils on Sunday night.
Islanders: Host the Montreal Canadiens on Sunday.
