One of the most noticeable things about the final scoresheet from Game 4 of the Islanders' first-round playoff series against the Washington Capitals on Tuesday night was the fact that the trio of Anthony Beauvillier, Brock Nelson and Josh Bailey all were held without a point in the game. It was the second straight scoreless game for the Islanders' hottest line.
Nobody was sweating it, though. In fact, as the Isles again looked to close out the Caps in Game 5 Thursday night, Bailey was looking forward to the line breaking out in a big situation.
"It's a great opportunity here," Bailey said before the game. "I think you can't dwell on any of the negatives; you focus on the positives and try and feed off those, and make sure you're ready for puck drop."
