NEW YORK -- New York Islanders coach Jack Capuano was so angry after two periods Monday, he didn't enter the dressing room before the start of the third.
"I didn't really want to break anything," Capuano said. "If you have to go in and tell them the importance of the game … it's (captain John Tavares') team. I could sense it. He was frustrated on the bench there, and I just figured at that particular point in time … like I've said before, we prepare them, we made some adjustments going into the third, but they have to play the game.
