NEW YORK (AP) — Josh Doan tied it with 1:54 left and Dylan Guenther scored his second goal of the game in overtime to give Utah a 5-4 victory over the New York Islanders on Thursday night.
Doan tied it 13 seconds after Islanders newcomer Max Tsyplakov scored his first career goal to give New York a 4-3 lead.
Lawson Crouse and Barrett Hayton also scored and Connor Ingram stopped 21 shots to help Utah improve to 2-0 in its first season in Salt Lake City after moving from Arizona. Utah beat Chicago 5-2 at home on Tuesday night.
Anthony Duclair, Bo Horvat and Jean-Gabriel Pageau also scored for New York in its opener. Semyon Varlamov made 21 saves.
Takeaways
Islanders: Duclair, New York's big offseason acquisition, had a good start on the top line alongside Mathew Barzal and Bo Horvat. He had a goal and an assist.
Utah: Guenther scored his third and fourth goals of the season. The 21-year-old forward was drafted ninth overall in 2021.
Key moment
Ingram stopped Horvat's one-timer with 6:53 left in the third period while Utah was killing off a four-minute, high-sticking penalty with the game tied at 3.
Key stat
Three of Utah's four goal scorers — Crouse, Hayton and Guenther — also scored in the opener.
