Wallin sneaks goal past Islanders: Carolina defensemen Mike Commodore and Niclas Wallin scored in the third period, and Cory Stillman netted the power-play winner in overtime for the Hurricanes, who earned a 3-2 victory over the New York Islanders on Monday. Wallin scored when he let the puck go from the right point, sending a drive between the legs of Islanders forward Trent Hunter and past Rick DiPietro, who was screened in front by Carolina captain Rod Brind'Amour with 4:40 left in regulation. It was his second goal of the season and first since Dec. 15. (Updated 01/21/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Wallin has never managed more than 10 points in a season. He has battled a shoulder injury for most of the season, and while he plays about 18 minutes per game, he is far more valuable to the Hurricanes than Fantasy owners. Treat him as a Fantasy reserve. (Updated 01/21/2008).
