Islanders Playoff News: Jumping out to a 1-0 series lead with style

At first, I thought the volume of penalties was going to doom the Islanders. And when Casey Cizikas missed that wide-open rebound try, I was like “ah man, it’s gonna be one of those games.”

And it wasn’t.

In fact, it turned out to be a beautiful comeback: a collapse by the Capitals, unable to hold back the Isles, who were by far the better team at even strength on the balance of the game.

Damn, it feels good.
