PITTSBURGH — The Islanders have a chance to sweep their first-round series against the Penguins in Tuesday night's Game 4 at PPG Paints Arena. But they also know the Penguins have a chance to revive themselves.
“You don’t want to give the other team here a sniff,” Robin Lehner told Newsday after Monday’s practice at the arena. “You don’t want to give them life. Because, man, they are good. They’re a heck of a hockey team. You don’t want to give them confidence. You don’t want to start giving them some wind. It can be incredibly dangerous. We’re all fully aware of the situation.
