I don't sense any frustration on the team yet," Satan said. "Our record is fine, and there's enough experience and grit on this team to go through that."

Sure enough, those qualities showed when Trent Hunter drew a holding penalty on Matt Niskanen at 17:11 of the third. Just 11 seconds later, Marc-Andre Bergeron fired his cannon from the right point. Turco couldn't control the rebound, and Satan scored on a one-timer from low in the right circle to tie the game at 2.

"Bergeron has a pretty hard shot," Satan said. "If it's not a goal, you get a hard bounce. That's what happened, and Mike [Comrie] came off the puck and tied up the defense and the puck was loose for me."

Satan's sixth goal put the Islanders in overtime for the first time this season, but they didn't last long. Defenseman Stephane Robidas blasted a shot from the right point that thudded off DiPietro's pads into the slot, where Martinek couldn't control Modano, who popped it over the Isles' goalie for the winner.

Shaking his head about the ill-fated bounce, Nolan said: "The puck goes to one of the most skilled guys in the history of the game. It's just one of those things."
