UNIONDALE, N.Y. — This game, just like the entirety of this second-round series, was everything NHL playoff hockey is supposed to be. The Islanders and Bruins again engaged in an even battle at a tension-filled Nassau Coliseum.
It’s only fitting this series is now tied at two games apiece and there will be at least one more playoff game at the venerable barn, which again seated a deafening 12,000.
The resilient Islanders rallied from a second-period deficit and defeated the Bruins, 4-1, in Game 4 on Saturday night as the teams have alternated wins to start the series. Game 5 is Monday night at TD Garden and the teams will return to the Coliseum on Wednesday night.
