Preview:

The Lightning were lucky on Wednesday in Game 2, losing two key forwards early on, but they somehow managed to avoid overtime by taking advantage of the Islanders’ lone defensive collapse with 30 seconds left in the game. The penalty kill, which successfully killed off a five-minute major and a 38-second 5-on-3, came up big for the Lightning as well.
