Anders Lee scored with 1:03 left Saturday afternoon to cap a comeback win by the visiting New York Islanders, who edged the Ottawa Senators 5-4.
Lee outraced Jordan Spence to a loose puck deep in the Senators zone and whirled in the crease before tucking a shot between the legs of Linus Ullmark to collect his first goal of the season and give the Islanders their only lead of the game.
Emil Heineman and Bo Horvat began the Islanders' comeback from a 2-0 deficit by scoring in the second period before Max Shabanov and Kyle Palmieri also collected game-tying goals.
Goalie Ilya Sorokin made 29 saves, including a stop of Shane Pinto on a third-period penalty shot, as New York won its second straight following a season-opening three-game losing streak.
Pinto, David Perron, Tim Stutzle and Dylan Cozens scored for the Senators, who have lost four of their first six games. Ullmark recorded 18 saves.
Perron scored with three seconds left on the power play at 17:01 of the first, when his shot from the left faceoff circle was slowed by Sorokin before the puck trickled between his legs and into the net.
Pinto began the second-period flurry by sending a shot from the left faceoff circle off the far post at the 5:32 mark. Heineman started the comeback with an impressive individual effort 78 seconds later, when he got up after being shoved to the ice by Drake Batherson and threaded a shot between Batherson and Thomas Chabot with teammate Jonathan Drouin in the crease.
Horvat tied the game for the first time with 10:03 left when he buried a shot from the right faceoff circle past a sprawling Ullmark. Stutzle beat Sorokin glove-side to give the Senators the lead again with 3:14 remaining, but Shabanov tied the score just 59 seconds later when he whirled and fired from the right faceoff circle as Ullmark was screened by a teammate as well as New York center Anders Lee.
Cozens put the Senators ahead for the third time by firing a shot under Sorokin's glove 1:02 later. But Sorokin turned back a penalty shot by Pinto 2:23 into the third to keep the Islanders within a goal before Mathew Barzal weaved up the ice, darted past three Ottawa players and sent a no-look pass to Palmieri, who beat Ullmark stick side with 14 minutes remaining.
