First Islanders Rangers game of the season

This past Tuesday The Islanders hosted the state rival New York Rangers. On top of that it was newly acquired winger Thomas Vanek's debut with the team. The first period had a lone goal scored by Chris Kreider for the Rangers. The second period however was all Islanders. Cal Clutterbuck tied it up for the Isles and then later in the period defense-man Travis Hamonick put the Islanders ahead 2-1. In the second period Matt Martin also had his first fight of the season, taking Derek Dorsett down with ease. The Rangers came out strong in the third period though, netting 2 goals while shutting the Islanders out to win the game 3-2. Thomas Vanek had no points in the game, but he skated well and just needs a few more practices to adjust to playing with John Tavares, Kyle Okposo and the rest of the squad. Below is a link to Matt Martins fight.
