Lewis Hamilton continued the perfect start to his Canadian GP weekend by setting the pace in Practice Two, though he was closely followed by Sebastian Vettel. Mercedes secured a one-two in Fridays earlier session and Hamilton was again in ominous form at a track where he has won four times before, topping the P2 timesheets with a 1:14.212 on the ultrasoft tyre.P1: Hamilton sets early pace But instead of having Nico Rosberg as his closest rival this time around, Vettel split the Silver Arrows on the same compound in his Ferrari and was just two tenths off the world champion.Max Verstappen was fourth for the second time of the day in Montreal, with Red Bull team-mate Daniel Ricciardo a place and just 0.012s behind.I just dont know about this session, said Sky F1 commentator David Croft. For me, there are still a lot of unknowns. The Red Bull hasnt been as quick over a single lap as some people expected.Other than Hamilton and Vettel, the other stand-out performers from the session were Valtteri Bottas and Jenson Button - who had identical benchmark laps of 1:15.213.When is the Canadian GP on Sky?Buttons best effort came despite missing a chunk of P2 due to an engine change, with the Brit returning to his Monaco ICE. Crucially for the McLaren veteran, he has kept the turbocharge upgrades the team brought to Canada.While Vettel was enjoying challenging both Mercedes, it wasnt a happy session for Kimi Raikkonen in ninth. The Finn, who expected a step forward from the Scuderias latest updates, was in the pits for much of the afternoon.It was far from an ideal day, he told Sky Sports F1. Its a struggle to make any sense of the car. Its one of those days where you keep changing and nothing seems to work exactly as you hope.WATCH: Massa out of P1 again!Felipe Massa recovered from his early Turn One shunt though he could only manage P13 in an improving Williams, but the session essentially belonged to one man. Felipe Massa crashes his Williams at turn 1 of the Gilles Villeneuve Circuit causing the first practice session of the Canadian GP to be red-flagged P2 is often an indicator of the pecking order come race day and Hamiltons pace on the soft tyre was also encouraging, faster than both Red Bulls ultrasoft efforts on the yellow-marked rubber.However, though the weather looks promising for P3 and qualifying, a drop in temperature and rain on Sunday remains a distinct possibility as the Englishman looks for his second win of 2016.Practice Two timesheet1.

But four unanswered goals to secure a 5-3 win over the New York Islanders was reason enough to savour the moment. Upshall scored twice in the third period as part of the four-goal outburst as the Panthers snapped a four-game losing streak and sent the Islanders to yet another discouraging loss Sunday. Upshalls 11th of the season broke a 3-3 tie at 10:31 of the final period. The goal came on the rebound of shot by Shawn Mattias, who also scored two goals for the Panthers. Upshall tapped the loose puck past backup goaltender Anders Nilsson, who started in place of Evgeni Nabokov. He scored again at 15:26 on the power play to make it 5-3. Tim Thomas made 35 saves for the Panthers (23-31-7). "We came out determined in the third," said the 30-year-old Upshall, a first-round pick by Nashville in 2002 who almost completed a natural hat trick with two minutes left. "We needed a spark and we found it. And we played with an edge." The Islanders entered the third with a 3-1 advantage after Thomas Vanek scored twice in the first and Ryan Strome added a goal late in the second. But Floridas Marcel Goc and Matthias scored early in the third to tie the game at 3 before Upshalls late scores. Vanek opened the scoring at 6:41 with his 20th of the season and added his 21st on the power play at 7:39. The goals were his first since Jan. 25. Vanek was a major acquisition by the Islanders from Buffalo on Oct. 27 and has 17 goals in 47 games for New York. The Austrian left wing said he wants to test free agency this summer. Thus, the Islanders might try to trade him before Wednesdays deadline while they can still garner assets in return. The Islanders lost for the ninth time in 11 games. And it was the 12th time in their disappointing season in which they surrendered a two-goal lead, winning only two of those contests. "We seem to find ways to lose," said Andrew MacDonald, also a pending free agent who could be traded. "Its tough to see games slip away. When you get the lead, you should be aable to hold it, most of the time.dddddddddddd Its discouraging." MacDonald also addressed the idea he could be leaving the only NHL organization he has known. "I thought about it today, it weighs on your mind," the 27-year-old defenceman said. "You try not to let it get to you." After Matthias scored for Florida to make it 2-1 at 18:15 of the second, Strome restored the two-goal margin for the Islanders 59 seconds later with his second of the season. Gocs 11th of the season at 3:16 of the third came on a 40-foot floater from just inside the left point to make it 3-2 early in the third. Matthias scored his second of the game and ninth of the season at 4:18. The afternoon matchup was chippy from the start. Rival tough guys Krys Barch of the Panthers and the Islanders Eric Boulton squared off 2:25 into the game. Eight seconds later, a skirmish ensued between Brian Strait of the Islanders and Jonathan Huberdeau of Florida. "We didnt quit, we stayed involved," added Matthias. "We played a real gritty game and were glad to get the two points." The Islanders beat Toronto in overtime last Thursday in their first game back following the Olympic break. But they were drubbed 6-1 on Saturday by the New Jersey Devils as Jaromir Jagr scored his 700th career goal. The Islanders played without defenceman Travis Hamonic, suspended one game for instigating a fight near the end of Saturdays loss. NOTES: The Islanders activated forward Frans Nielsen before the game and sent Mike Halmo to AHL Bridgeport. Nielsen, who has 18 goals, suffered a broken hand when he was slashed against Colorado on Feb. 8. ... The Islanders (23-32-8) head out for a four-game Canadian road trip -- Winnipeg, Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver before returning home to face San Jose on March 14. ... The Panthers have played 30 one-goal games this season, with a 12-11-7 mark. ... Florida was without forwards Alex Barkov (knee) and Tomas Kopecky (upper body) while the Islanders also missed forward Matt Martin (lower body). ... Florida scratched captain Ed Jovanovski and forward Scott Gomez.
