The New York Islanders are playing for more than just keeping their season alive.
On Friday night, they'll have the opportunity to make franchise history as their semifinal series against the Tampa Bay Lightning goes the distance in a series-deciding Game 7 at Amalie Arena.
It's the farthest the Islanders have pushed a semifinal series in their post-Cup era. It allows them the chance to fight for more games to be housed at the storied Nassau Coliseum. And the Islanders are one win away from advancing to the Stanley Cup Final, an appearance they haven't made since 1984, when they lost 4-1 to Edmonton.
