The Islanders christened UBS Arena’s playoff opener with a 5-1 victory over the Hurricanes.
Nassau Coliseum was a fortress for the Islanders in the playoffs, from the beginning of the building’s life to its very end.
Whether UBS Arena will hold to the same standard is a question that can’t be answered after one game.The Islanders christened the building’s playoff opener with a 5-1 victory over the Hurricanes thanks to two late third-period goals, pulling their first-round series back to a 2-1 deficit with a chance to make it even on Sunday afternoon.

That finally gave the Islanders a power play goal they desperately needed and the momentum to hang on for a win in a game they looked ready to blow at the end of the second period.
