The Bruins and Islanders are tied 2-2 in their best-of-seven Stanley Cup Playoff series. What does Boston need to do to get back control of the series in Game 5?

If you ask Matt Dolloff and Ty Anderson of the SideLines podcast at 98.5 The Sports Hub, it's a shakeup on the bottom-six forward lines. And even then, they still desperately need Brandon Carlo back on defense. But will we see either of those things on Monday night?

Among the topics discussed in this postgame podcast for the Bruins' Game 4 loss: the Bruins' defensive problems without Carlo; struggles on the third and fourth forward groupings; David Pastrnak's egregious missed scoring chance; the David Krejci slash to the nether-regions of Mathew Barzal; and who should go into the lineup for Game 5 and who should come out.
