11/04/2007 - Uniondale, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Miroslav Satan scored two goals, both in the third period, as the New York Islanders rallied to beat the Pittsburgh Penguins, 3-2, at Nassau Coliseum.
It was a good result in the return of legendary Islanders coach Al Arbour, who was brought back in place of head coach Ted Nolan for one game, his 1,500th with the club.
Trent Hunter added a goal, and Rick DiPietro and Wade Dubielewicz combined to make 23 saves for the Islanders, who have won four of their last five. Josef Vasicek and Marc-Andre Bergeron had assists for New York, which went ahead of Pittsburgh in the Atlantic Division standings.
Ryan Malone and Tyler Kennedy scored for the Penguins, who have now dropped four of their last five games. Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 36 shots for Pittsburgh.
Satan, who had just one goal before Saturday's game, was the spark in coming back from a 2-1 deficit entering the third period.
About five minutes into the final 20 minutes, the Islanders collected the puck in their defensive zone, as Vasicek started racing across the neutral zone. He accepted a pass just as he crossed the blue line, and skated to the right circle.
When he got near the right faceoff circle, Vasicek stopped, and dished a pass to Satan skating up the middle of the ice, and Satan put it past Fleury.
Nearly 12 minutes later, Satan struck again. An Isles shot blasted from the right side of the blue line caromed around to the left side, where Bergeron controlled the puck and rocketed a shot back towards net.
Fleury made the save with his left leg pad, but the puck bounced out to Satan, who put it in for the deciding score.
Though, it was a less-than-ideal contest for DiPietro, who left in the second period after a collision with Sidney Crosby's stick. As the Penguins' captain skated by the right side of the net with about six minutes left in the period, his stick caught DiPietro in the eye.
DiPietro, who could see out of the bruised eye, was taken to the hospital for further evaluation.
The Isles' starting goaltender came out of the game in line for the loss, as his team struggled to get back in the game. They outshot the Penguins 29-19 through two periods, but had just one goal to show for it.
That came 8:20 into the second period, after the Islanders had just ended a power play, when Hunter slapped one from the slot past Fleury.
Pittsburgh raced out to a 2-0 lead after Malone scored on the power play with just under eight minutes to go in the first period. Kennedy notched the second Penguins goal - and his first the year 1:48 into the second period on a strange shot that went into the top left corner of the net, but wasn't initially called a goal.
Game Notes
Crosby's assist extended his points streak to 12 consecutive games...Pittsburgh has scored at least one power play goal in all 13 games this season.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
