A wild Game 3 ended 5-4 in the Penguins’ favor, but not before a third period that saw five goals and 32 penalty minutes between the teams.
“Obviously it’s a period filled with emotions,” said Penguins forward Brandon Tanev. “Wasn’t our best period, but at the end of the day we found a way to win, and that’s what matters. The guys came together as a group.”
Pittsburgh heads into Game 4 looking to head home a win away from advancing. The Islanders, who are moving into UBS Arena in October, are hoping Saturday afternoon is not the final game at Nassau Coliseum. Another crowd of 7000-plus fans on Long Island will be eager to see their team even the series before things shift back to Pittsburgh for Game 5.
Islanders head coach Barry Trotz would not say who will start in goal in Game 4. Semyon Varlamov and Ilya Sorokin have both seen action in the series.
