During a closely contested game, Ryan Lindgren was penalized for boarding Mathew Barzal, resulting in a brief 13 seconds of 5-on-3 advantage for the Islanders. The incident occurred with 16:41 remaining in the second period, and it extended an existing Islanders power play by an additional two minutes, during which Roy used his timeout. Despite the advantageous position, the Islanders struggled with their 5v4 setup, as noted by observers. In an unexpected turn, the Islanders allowed Ryan Lindgren a short-handed breakaway during a line change. At a later point in the game, with the Islanders leading 2-1 at 6:45, Lindgren was penalized again, this time for tripping, giving the Islanders another power play opportunity.
Dangerous for #Isles, up 2-1 at 6:45 but going on the PP with Lindgren off for tripping
Lindgren off for boarding Barzal. 16:41 to play in the second. 5-on-3 for 13 seconds. Roy uses his timeout. #Isles
With 13 seconds left in the #Isles PP, Lindgren gets called for boarding to extend it by another 2 min. Maybe he saw how bad the Isles have looked at 5v4 and decided to keep it going?
But the Islanders will now get a brief 5-on-3 and another power play after Ryan Lindgren boarded Mathew Barzal. https://t.co/8GRIusmAZb
Lindgren gets called for boarding Barzal. Barzal seems OK. Isles have 13 seconds of 5-on-3.
#Isles getting :13 of 5 on 3, Lindgren called for boarding Barzal, who sold it pretty well.
#Isles just gave up a Ryan Lindgren SH breakaway during a change
