Over the past decade, the idea of blowing a big series lead has become one of sports fans' favorite topics to talk about. Whether it be the Yankees blowing a 3-0 lead to the Red Sox or the Warriors blowing a 3-1 lead to the Cavaliers, there are plenty of examples of teams overcoming the odds to win a series.
Hockey is no different, as four teams in NHL history have done the impossible and come back after being down three games to none.
One of these teams is the New York Islanders. Before the dynasty of the early 80s, the best playoff moment for the Islanders came in 1975, when they beat the Penguins in the quarterfinals four games to three after being down three games to none.
