First period

Good start for the Pens, Drew O’Connor nearly scores on his first shift but his hard shot ramps off Ilya Sorokin and his post and out of play.

Ryan Graves takes a tripping penalty that swings the period towards the Islanders’ control. The Penguins kill it off but lose a lot of momentum.
