TAMPA -- Tampa Bay Lightning goalie Ben Bishop couldn't bail out the defense in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Second Round series against the New York Islanders.
The Islanders took advantage of defensive breakdowns by the Lightning in the first two periods to take a three-goal lead on their way to a 5-3 win. Game 2 of the best-of-7 series is at Amalie Arena on Saturday (3 p.m. TV: NBC, SN, TVA Sports).
