Another point not taken by Islanders
Isles squander late lead in OT loss to Nashville
The Islanders climbed back into a playoff spot Monday night at Downtown’s Barclays Center.
They also gave back a point they sorely needed if they hope to reach the postseason for the second time in three years since relocating to Brooklyn.
“It’s frustrating,” Islanders captain John Tavares admitted after a gut-wrenching 5-4 overtime loss to the defending Western Conference champion Nashville Predators in front of 10,217 fans on the corners of Atlantic and Flatbush avenues.
