    Lightning and Islanders searching for answers to rebound from 2-0 deficits in NHL playoffs

    Experience tells the Tampa Bay Lightning it's time to go to work — not panic. The New York Islanders are also down 2-0 after playing well at times and losing their first two games of the NHL playoffs on the road. Both teams understand it'll take a lot more than a return to home ice Thursday night — the Lightning versus Florida, and the Islanders hosting Carolina —to alter the course of those first-round matchups. New York blew a three-goal lead in its Game 2 loss to the Hurricanes.
