Now, the series is tied at 2 after the Isles won 4-1 in Game 4, the first game of the series decided by more than one goal. Pittsburgh responded by winning Games 2 and 3 by a combined score of 7-5. The Penguins and Islanders continue to trade blows in their opening-round series. However, they have rebounded to win three straight games, outscoring the Wild 12-3 in those contests to move to the cusp of advancing. Then the Golden Knights dropped Game 1 of their opening-round series 1-0 in overtime. Vegas had some trouble against Minnesota during the regular season, going 3-4-1 in the eight matchups between the teams. The Lightning dropped Game 3 in overtime, but they bounced back for a 6-2 win in Game 4. Tampa Bay has a 3-1 lead over Florida, having scored 19 goals already in the series. But these teams were among the top contenders, so it's not a shocker that both are off to strong starts this postseason. The Lightning and Vegas Golden Knights are also each a win away from advancing to the second round. The Jets went 2-7-0 against the Oilers during the regular season. It beat Edmonton 4-1 in Game 1 and then notched overtime wins in Games 2 and 3. It's a surprise that Winnipeg has dominated the series in this fashion. The Winnipeg Jets own a 3-0 lead over the Edmonton Oilers and will be looking to advance to the second round with a victory on home ice Monday. Colorado may not be the only team to earn a first-round sweep, as there's still one other series that could end in four games.
