We just have to grind it out. Tonight we were able to come through with a game-winning goal. Was a great shot and I was able to tip in. Weve faced enough adversity for a season.

After being whistled for too many men, Matt Cullen was called for a delay of game faceoff violation for falling on the puck on the ensuing faceoff. The Islanders managed six shots on the two-man advantage, including a diving glove save by Murray on a shot by John Tavares from the right side.You knew that after the 2-minute 5-on-3 where we didnt score, it always comes back to haunt you a little bit, New York coach Jack Capuano said. Our guys battled right to the end and we found a way to win.Cizikas made it 3-0 with 2:39 left in the second with his third, tipping in the deflection of a shot by Andrew Ladd.Boychuk got the Islanders on the scoreboard first, firing a slap shot from outside the right faceoff circle into the left side of the night on Murrays blocker side with 13 seconds left in the opening period.

TEMPE, Ariz. -- Despite finishing with 143 all-purpose yards in the Arizona Cardinals?40-7 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, running back David Johnson didnt have a good showing, his coach said.He played poorly, other than he made a couple big plays, Cardinals coach Bruce Arians said during his Monday news conference.Arians was critical of the Cardinals offense as a whole despite it scoring 33 of Arizonas 40 points.The other touchdown came on an interception returned for a touchdown by cornerback Marcus Cooper. Quarterback Carson Palmer threw for 308 yards and three touchdowns while wide receivers Larry Fitzgerald and Jaron Brown had 81 and 78 yards, respectively, with each scoring a touchdown.Sunday was also the sixth game under Arians that the Cardinals scored 40 or more points.The score doesnt indicate, I dont think, how poorly we played offensively, Arians said. We can get a hell of a lot better. Communication was not very good in the beginning of the game -- way too many mental errors, especially by a couple young players.Later, Arians singled out Johnson, saying his mental errors prevented the Cardinals from accumulating another 100, 120 yards and two touchdowns.We should have had 50 [points], you know? Arians said.One play that Arians still was steaming over Monday morning was a route that Johnson botched. It was second-and-11 from the Bucs 18 about midway through the third quarter. Joohnson, who lined up wide to Palmers right, ran to the end zone and cut outside instead of cutting inside, where Palmers throw was nearly picked off by Tampa Bays Brent Grimes.ddddddddddddBut Johnson took the blame for his mistakes Sunday after the game and again Monday after watching game film, calling it my bonehead plays.There were plays I knew what I was doing, but I just didnt do it, Johnson said. They are easy reads and easy routes that I shouldve done in the game.Johnson said he knew immediately when he bungled a play, but that didnt stop Arians from giving him an earful on the sideline.Johnson, however, sparkled on a handful of plays Sunday, including a 58-yard reception down the right sideline. He also stiff-armed Tampa Bay linebacker Kwon Alexander to the ground on another play. Johnson showed his patience, footwork and agility on a second-and-goal play from the 9-yard line in the second quarter that shouldve been a 7-yard loss but Johnson turned into a 4-yard gain.After hearing that Arians called him out by name Monday, the second-year running back out of Northern Iowa felt it was fair ridicule.Thats good -- its good motivation, Johnson said. Its good that he keeps us grounded, keeps us levelheaded and lets us know -- especially me -- that I have some work to do.
