Christian’s Daily Links: There Will Be a Game 4

The Islanders failed to close out their best-of-five game series with the Florida Panthers on Wednesday, which means Game 4 will take place. The game will be another noon start on Friday.

As far as Wednesday’s 3-2 loss the Islanders made plenty of mistakes that cost them the win. The biggest of them being the mental errors that resulted in penalties.
