PITTSBURGH _ The Islanders pushed the Penguins to the brink of elimination with a 4-1 win in Game 3 of their first-round playoff series on Sunday afternoon at PPG Paints Arena.
And for the third straight game, the Islanders played the more structured defensive game and got the stronger goaltending performance from Robin Lehner (25 saves).
The Islanders, up 3-0, have not swept a best-of-seven series since the 1983 Stanley Cup Final against the Oilers.
