With Mathew Barzal and Anders Lee scoring goals six seconds apart against the Ottawa Senators on Friday night, they tied a franchise record for the second-fastest two goals.

The New York Islanders’ offense took flight in the second period of their matchup with the Ottawa Senators. 

The team rallied for three goals, the first coming off the stick of Oliver Wahlstrom. However, around the period’s midpoint, New York scored two goals in six seconds.

According to NHL Public Relations, the two goals tied a record for the fastest, non-empty-net goals in franchise history. 

The last time that happened was October 27, 1979, when Clark Gillies and Mike Bossy scored a pair in the same timeframe in a 6-4 win over the Chicago Blackhawks.

The Islanders' fastest two goals in franchise history came back on Nov. 30, 2016, when Nikolay Kulemin scored on an empty net four seconds after Anders Lee deflected a Thomas Hickey point shot:

Mathew Barzal scored the first goal of the sequence on the power play. 

After a failed drive to the net by Brock Nelson, Kyle Palmieri found Barzal on the left side. 

Barzal drove toward the middle and let a shot go, beating Anton Forsberg to give New York a 3-1 lead at 9:51 of the period

Off the ensuing draw, Oliver Wahlstrom passed the puck to Anders Lee on the left side on the rush. Lee drove towards the hash marks and snuck it past Forsberg short side, doubling the Islanders’ lead 9:57 into the second.

Ottawa responded with two quick goals of their own, Tim Stützle and Drake Batherson scored 47 seconds apart to get the Senators within one after two periods.

The Islanders entered the third period with a 4-3 lead, down both Adam Pelech and Sebastian Aho, who left the game with injuries in the first period.
