Devils 4, Islanders 1 after Two

Posted by Gayle Simone, Sun Staff

David Clarkson and Matthew Corrente both dropped the gloves for New Jersey in the second period as they faced off against Darryl Bootland and Tim Jackman respectively.

Brian Gionta scored his second goal of the night on the power play just 52 seconds into the period.

The Islanders finally got one past Martin Brodeur when Gordie Dwyer beat him in front of the crease.

Jackman is having a rough night for the Isles as he dropped the gloves against Aaron Ashman as time expired in the period.


Goaltending changes to start the third:
Joey MacDonald took over in net for the Isles to start the third and Frank Doyle made his way into the Jersey crease in relief of Brodeur.
