The under-performing and injury-depleted Islanders dropped to 0-3-1 in their past four in entering the final week of a season in which expectations had them making a deep playoff run to christen their newly built UBS Arena. Their season, however, was mostly undone by an 0-8-3 skid spanning November and December.

The Sabres, by comparison, are surging. They improved to 15-8-3 in their past 26 to close a season in which they've long been eliminated from playoff contention for an NHL-record 11th straight year. Dahlin, the 2018 draft's No. 1 pick, scored the go-ahead goal by blasting in a shot from the blue line 1:17 into the second period. Thompson scored less than four minutes later by one-timing in Jacob Bryson's pass into the left circle.
