The Isles completed a sweep of the day-night doubleheader with a come-from-behind 3-2 win over Ottawa in St. John's Newfoundland.
Cal Clutterbuck's 5th round shootout goal proved to be the decisive tally, making a winner of Kevin Poulin (in relief of Jaroslav Halak).
Newly-acquired Mikhail Grabovski had a goal and an assist for the Isles. Josh Bailey scored the tying goal late in the second period and also scored in the 4th round of the shootout.
