Well, that was less than ideal. Game 6 is Saturday at the Coliseum at 3 pm, thanks to the Predators win over Chicago.
- Another game, another Islanders defenseman down. Calvin deHaan took a late, peripheral hit up high from Troy Brouwer in the third period. He left the game and did not return. [LHH]
- Anders Lee fought Tom Wilson just before the Islanders scored. And for one minute, all of the right narratives seemed to align. Alas... [LHH]
- The neutral zone play of the Islanders gave the Caps entirely too much time and space.
