NEW YORK: Kyle Okposo scored the only goal in the shootout to lift the New York Islanders to a 2-1 victory over the crosstown-rival New York Rangers on Wednesday night.

John Tavares scored in regulation and Jaroslav Halak had 33 saves through overtime and then stopped all three Rangers attempts in the shootout to give the Islanders their fourth win in five games (4-0-1).

Viktor Stalberg scored the tying goal in the second period, and Henrik Lundqvist had 36 saves for the Rangers, who lost for the fourth time in five games (1-3-1).

Tavares gave the Islanders the lead with a 5-on-3 power-play with 7:38 to go in the second period.

Stalberg redirected Marc Staal’s shot past Halak to tie it with 1:23 remaining in the period.

Jets 6, Maple Leafs 1: Drew Stafford scored a pair of first-period goals, pacing the Winnipeg Jets to a 6-1 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Stafford fired his eighth and ninth of the season to give the hosts a 2-1 lead that held up through two periods. Mark Scheifele set up both of those goals.

Oilers 3, Bruins 2 (SO): Jordan Eberle was the only player to score in the shootout, and the Edmonton Oilers got a 3-2 win over the Boston Bruins.

Eberle’s wristed his shootout attempt into the top corner, giving the Oilers just their second win against the Bruins since the 2001-02 season, both of which came via the shootout.

The Bruins’ five-game winning streak came to an end.

Lightning 2, Ducks 1: Jonathan Marchessault’s third career goal gave the Tampa Bay Lightning a 2-1 victory over the Anaheim Ducks at the Honda Center.
