Patrick Kane scored the only goal in the shootout Sunday night as the visiting Chicago Blackhawks (+1.5) edged the New York Islanders (-1.5), 3-2, in Elmont, N.Y.

Noah Dobson forced overtime by scoring with 3.6 seconds left for the Islanders, but neither team generated a serious threat in overtime before Kane, shooting second for the Blackhawks, shuffled the puck several times before coming to a stop and firing a shot past Semyon Varlamov into the upper right corner of the net.
