Islanders Top Devils 2-1, Remain Unbeaten
By TOM CANAVAN
.c The Associated Press, 9/24/03
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - Oleg Kvasha and Justin Papineau scored in a
72-second span in the second period and the New York Islanders beat the
New Jersey Devils 2-1 to remain unbeaten in the preseason under new coach
Steve Stirling.
After giving up a soft goal to Jeff Friesen on the Devils' first shot,
Garth Snow made 21 saves in helping the Islanders win their fourth
straight game (4-0).
Vezina Trophy winner Martin Brodeur extended his preseason scoreless
streak to 69 minutes, 38 seconds by stopping the first 12 shots by New
York.
The Islanders got on the board less than three minutes later when Kvasha
scored into an open net after a centering pass by Alexei Yashin hit off
defenseman Sean Brown.
Papineau put the Islanders ahead 2-1 from right in front after taking a
pass from behind the goal line by Michael Peca. It was the third goal for
the rookie, who played 16 games in the NHL with St. Louis and the
Islanders last season.
Friesen scored at 1:54 of the first period on a shot from the left circle
that beat Snow between the pads.
The Devils, who shut out Philadelphia 3-0 on Tuesday, are 1-2 in the
preseason.
islesinfo stats: The Islanders have won 8
straight preseason matchups dating back to preseason of 2002 when they
lost their first game but won the next 4 to go 4-1. The Islanders are 4-0
thus far in 2003 preseason and have outscored the opposition 13-4, a GAA
of 1.00.

IslesInfo Pregame Preview
Preview
3-0 Isles Visit New Jersey
Sept 24: The Islanders look to test their new
defensive system under coach Steve Stirling against the team that has
perfected the trap over the last 10 or so years, the New Jersey Devils.
Isles vs. New Jersey Preview: The Islanders will
be skating into a place tonight where they did not have much success last
season. At the Continental Airlines Arena in 2002-03 the Islanders lost
both games played and were outscored 11-0. This will be the first game
home this season for the defending Stanley Cup Champion Devils. Who better
for the Islanders to measure up their new focus on a defensive trapping
system than against New Jersey. It will be interesting to see if Martin
Brodeur plays this game in goal for the Devils. Garth Snow will most
likely play as Stirling is now alternating games between him and Rick
DiPietro. Brodeur became the topic of the day around Islander camp when it
was reported that he blasted Snow for complaining about the recent goalie
equipment crackdown in an article that Brodeur is writing for a newspaper
in Montreal. Brodeur said Snow "reminded him of a robot named
Goldarak that he would watch on TV as a kid." Snow replied today that
people in glass houses should not throw stones, possibly alluding to
Brodeur's off the ice marital problems.
