The Stanley Cup semis come to Long Island Thursday night with things all tied up.

The Isles haven't had the best time with game 3s this postseason -- they've lost both of them.

The winner of tonight's game will take a 2-1 series lead.

The Lightning set the tone in game 2 with lots of shots and punches, scoring four times.

The Isles say they learned from the loss.

"We have a lot of depth too when it comes to playing against whoever, so I think we're comfortable against whoever is out there on each line," says Ryan Pulock. "They have threats on all their lines, and we have to be aware of that."

Coach Barry Trotz says the team will need the Coliseum to help them bring home a win. He wants them to bring all the "mojo" they possibly can.

The puck drops in Uniondale at 8 p.m.
