Matthew Schaefer scored his first goal of the season, a wrist shot after a slick maneuver around the blue line, making it 2-3. Brayden Schenn tied the game with a buzzer-beater in the third period. In the final period, Hagel scored his third goal of the night, sealing the 5-3 loss for the Islanders.",
