Hockey Night on Long Island  

The Islanders were able to pull out a 4-3 win Saturday in Philadephia despite an anemic powerplay throughout the game.  The Isles tooko an early lead on a Richard Park goal, but went into the first break tied one to one.  The Isles had to play from behind in the second period twice, but were able to salvage a three to three tie goinging into the third period.  The game winner came on a great pass in front of the net from Marc-Andre Bergeron to Andy Hilbert, who put the puck in the net.  While it wasn't the best game the Isles have played this year, it still counts for 2 huge points in the standings.  Of course, the weekend had just begun, as the Islanders are taking on the Rangers at the coliseum on Sunday in what may be the biggest meeting between these rivals in a very long time.
