Playoffs Day 17

The Lightning and Penguins both tied their playoff series last night so there will be at least 5 games in the series. The Lightning beat the Islanders 4-1 in dominating fashion. Jonathan Drouin scored his first playoff goal, Tyler Johnson had two with one being an empty netter, and Victor Hedman put in a slap shot. Nikolay Kulemin was the only scorer for the Islanders. The Penguins and Capitals played a really close game with the Penguins winning it 2-1. Carl Hagelin and the former Capital player Eric Fehr scored for the Pens with 4 minutes and 28 seconds to go in the game.  Marcus Johansson was the only scorer for the Caps which continued their offensive struggles. The Penguins dominated with shots on goal the first period with 14 shots to the Capitals 5 and the next shot for the Capitals was with 5 minutes and 12 second to go in the second by Alex Ovechkin shooting it. The series is now tied at 3 going back to Pittsburg. Can the Islanders get more offense? Can the Penguins dominate again? Can the Capitals get some offense from Alex Ovechkin? stay tuned.... P.S THIS IS MY 100TH POST SO THANK YOU FOR READING THIS BLOG!
