Watch: Garrison blasts OT winner to put Islanders on brink of elimination

The Tampa Bay Lightning are one win from returning to the conference final, and they'll have an opportunity to close out the New York Islanders on home ice.

Jason Garrison's booming slap shot early in overtime of Game 4 eluded goaltender Thomas Greiss and gave the Lightning a 3-1 series lead Friday night.

The Lightning trailed for most of the game until Nikita Kucherov tied it midway through the third period with his league-leading eighth goal of the playoffs.

Ben Bishop made 27 saves in the win, pushing his career overtime record to 5-0 and giving him a tournament-best seventh victory of the postseason.

Game 5 goes Sunday afternoon at Amalie Arena.
