Greiss stopped 45 shots for his first shutout of the season, and the Islanders beat the Carolina Hurricanes 3-0 on Friday night. Greiss got his eighth career shutout one night after Jaroslav Halak had 50 saves in a 3-0 home win against the crosstown-rival Rangers. “It was a huge win for us, especially after emotional last night at home,” Islanders centre Brock Nelson said. The Hurricanes outshot the Islanders 16-7 in the first period and 28-15 through the second. After a battle behind the Hurricanes net, Nelson fished out a rolling puck along the boards and pushed it to Boychuk at the right point.
