Stars not aligned for Isles to beat Dallas
Puck-luck and sluggishness lead to rare defeat at Barclays Center
Anders Lee scored a pair of goals, including his team-high 19th of the season, Wednesday night at Downtown’s Barclays Center.
Unfortunately, both tallies came after the game had long been decided.
Lee’s late flurry couldn’t come close to helping the New York Islanders overcome a sluggish start and some poor puck-luck in an eventual 5-2 loss to the visiting Dallas Stars in front of 10,316 paying patrons on the corners of Atlantic and Flatbush avenues.
