This one was a bit of a snoozer to start — not much action, save for Ilya Sorokin standing tall and the Islanders hitting the post a few times. We went into the third period tied at zero, a rarity for this sometimes defensively-challenged team, but a four minute power play helped the Isles break […]
After knocking off the top team from each conference to conclude their homestand, the Islanders now do a traveling back-to-back through Florida with start times 22 hours apart for some reason. As they continue to defy expectations at each turn, your mileage may vary on whether this weekend will be a “thought they’d get stomped […]
Colorado’s east coast road trip continues today in a matinee matchup against the New York Rangers. After a disappointing loss against the New York Islanders on Wednesday night, which saw the Colorado Avalanche lose by a final score of 6-3, they look to bounce right back against the Rangers. This will be the second and […]

I don’t care if Bettman’s blue,Football’s dull and basketball tooBaseball, I don’t care about youIt’s hockey, I’m in love Thursday night was crazy and fun and so modern-era Islanders. After struggling to score all homestand, they rang up goals against the top team in the league with everything from a Kyle MacLean goal that most […]
Kicking off an east coast road trip, the Colorado Avalanche visited Long Island in search of their 20th win on the season against the New York Islanders. That milestone will have to wait as the Avalanche suffered their second regulation defeat in a 6-3 final for the Islanders. Val Nichushkin, Martin Nečas and Artturi Lehkonen […]
Brock Nelson’s return was an emotional affair, and you can tell just how much the long-time Islander meant to his teammates, the organization, and of course, the fans. That guy was part of some of the best moments of my Islanders fandom, and even though it was definitely the right move to trade him, it […]
The Avalanche have enjoyed a lot of success lately, and once again, it’s time to test their mettle on the East Coast as they visit Patrick Roy and the New York Islanders at UBS Arena tonight. Nathan MacKinnon is the league’s top point-getter, and the Avalanche are the NHL’s winningest club so far. A miserable […]

The long homestand concludes tonight with Brock Nelson in the building in his new threads (shame they’re not the Nordique ones, we could have given ourselves Ron Hextall or Scott Gordon nostalgia), with his new mates who’ve still lost only once in regulation. Tear up for the tribute video? Brock wouldn’t have you do that, […]

It’s a testament to the professionalism and drive of players like Danton Heinen, Ryan Graves and Philip Tomasino that AHL assignments have been used as positive fuel instead of becoming a drag both individually and for the team and organization at large. It’s not an easy situation when an NHL player making NHL bucks gets […]
Before we get too far into this, we will admit we did not watch tonight’s game. Thanks to a combination of factors including, but not limited to, a rough day at the bill-paying job, wonky internet, and the fact that we have no couch, we’re not going to watch the game either. So here are some recaps of the 2-1 loss from folks that we assume did watch the game. Bo Horvat and old friend Anthony Duclair had the tallies for the Islanders while Dominic James scored for the Lightning.

The Islanders got the much-needed go-ahead goals and timely saves that had eluded them on this homestand and were rewarded with a 2-1 victory that ended the Tampa Bay Lightning’s seven-game win streak.

Mike and Dan recap a frustrating run of home games that have the Islanders losing all of the ground they picked up on their successful recent road trip. With losses to the Bruins, Flyers (via shootout) and Capitals, the Islanders continue to struggle at UBS Arena, which is making fans annoyed. They also have to […]
The Islanders took another regulation loss because this sport is alternately frustrating and fun in the “on any given Sunday afternoon…” kind of way. It was funny to hear the coaches in post-game because Washington’s Spencer Carbery was basically, “Eh, well, we were OK” and “we [were fortunate to get] a 2-0 lead and were […]

The New York Islanders’ seven-game homestand got evermore frustrating Sunday afternoon as they dropped their third in regulation and fourth loss overall through five tries. Falling to the Capitals 4-1 (with two empty netters), the Islanders couldn’t convert their chances early, then couldn’t get a toehold late after Tom Not That Kind of Player Wilson […]
The New York Islanders are hanging around, but the blow from losing Kyle Palmieri hurts. They are still just out of a playoff spot and have some players playing very well to keep them in it, but trades could still happen ahead of the trade deadline. Someone like J.G. Pageau is one of the only pending UFAs on the team, so if the Islanders were to sell, he would likely be a player moved now that Callum Ritchie is in the mix. But a plan revealed by Jeff Marek would have worked out nicely if Pagea...
