Well that got off to a nice, breezy start but as Barry Trotz said, maybe that first period was too easy. The Capitals weren’t about to roll over. (Indeed, they took liberties like they didn’t care if they might be suspended for Regular Season Games To Be Named Later.) And the Islanders’ power play wasn’t about to make them think about calling it a night.
Now the Isles have to go back to D.C. and face the Sea of Red, er, well, now they have to put white uniforms back on for Game 5 Thursday in Toronto.
