The last time these two teams met in a playoff-like series was 2016. That year, the New York Islanders defeated the Florida Panthers in the Atlantic Semifinals; NYI's first postseason series win in over 20 years. The Isles are coming off a season that saw them sweep the Pittsburgh Penguins in Round 1, but get swept by the Carolina Hurricanes in Round 2. I actually had the Isles topping last season and possibly going toe-to-toe with the Bruins in the East, but they hit a small lull in the final month leading to the pause. Nevertheless, they ended up seventh overall in the East, while the Panthers were pretty much in the thick of the race for the entire season--spending that time battling for third in the Atlantic with the Maple Leafs. This should be a short series, not a sweep, but I can't see the Panthers really giving NYI any trouble. Prediction: Islanders in 4 #1 |

Panthers 3, Islanders 2 Panthers' two clutch third period goals help them avoid elimination in Game Three. |
