Blackhawks Control Play but Come Up Empty at UBS Arena

Chicago outworked the Islanders in chances and shot attempts, yet couldn't finish — Sorokin and the scoreboard had the final say.

By MA Insights

Chicago looked like the better team for long stretches, driving play and out-attempting New York while piling the pressure into the offensive zone. Their chances were worth more than two goals by the expected-goals model, but they scored once and ran into Ilya Sorokin's night; goaltending and missed finishes turned strong underlying work into a 4-1 loss.
