SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) \u2014 Bo Horvat<\/a> scored with 39.6 seconds left in overtime, lifting the New York Islanders<\/a> to a 2-1 win over the San Jose Sharks<\/a> on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Tony DeAngelo<\/a> also had a goal and Ilya Sorokin<\/a> made 30 saves for New York, which snapped a two-game skid and improved to 9-0 this season in overtime. It was also the Islanders\u2019 second win over the Sharks this season.<\/p>\n

Macklin Celebrini<\/a> scored his 32 goal of the season for the Sharks, who also lost in overtime against St. Louis on Friday. Yaroslav Askarov<\/a> had 32 saves.<\/p>\n

Brayden Schenn<\/a> made his debut for the Islanders after being acquired from the Blues at the trade deadline for forward Jonathan Drouin<\/a>, a goaltending prospect and first- and third-round picks in the draft this year. He had one shot and a blocked shot in 20 shifts and 17:26 of ice time.<\/p>\n

Both teams had early goals before the game hit a scoring lull. <\/p>\n

After Celebrini\u2019s goal 33 seconds into the second period tied it at 1, the teams went nearly 44 minutes without scoring.<\/p>\n

It appeared the game was headed to a shootout before Horvat\u2019s winner ended the offensive drought. Horvat knocked in his team-leading 27th goal on a backhand shot that silenced the crowd in San Jose. Matthew Schaefer<\/a> and Mathew Barzal<\/a> assisted.<\/p>\n

The Islanders spent much of the first period in the Sharks\u2019 zone and broke through on DeAngelo\u2019s fifth goal of the season at the 8:23 mark. It was the Islanders defenseman\u2019s first goal first since Jan. 26. Calum Ritchie<\/a> assisted.<\/p>\n

Celebrini, the Sharks\u2019 19-year-old star, tied it in the second with his third goal in three games. Celebrini\u2019s shot from the right circle went past two defenders and Sorokin. Will Smith<\/a> and John Klingberg<\/a> had assists.<\/p>\n

Both teams had several scoring opportunities in overtime. Sorokin held tough and made multiple point-blank saves to bail out the Islanders. <\/p>\n

Islanders: At St. Louis on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Sharks: Host Buffalo on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
