Latest news and updates about the Islanders
Mike and Dan enjoy being proven wrong by the Islanders, who won three of their tough games this week before losing to the Panthers on Sunday afternoon. Last week, things were not looking good. The Islanders had squandered much of their homestand on losses and had a run of games against recent Stanley Cup champions […]

The Florida Panthers concluded a rough six-game homestand on a high note, delivering a complete effort to beat the New York Islanders 4-1 at Amerant Bank Arena. Florida opened the scoring at the 12:14 mark. After A.J. Greer lost the handle behind the net, Mackie Samoskevich took firm possession and sent a bounce pass off the boards back to Uvis Balinksis. The Latvian defenseman notched his first of the season when his wrist shot from the left point eluded David Rittich, who was screened b...

The Islanders couldn’t complete the Florida sweep, though all things considered they can come away marginally pleased to have exited the back-to-back with a couple points. They finished it with a 4-1 loss to the Panthers that they described as “out of sync,” while a positive-looking Patrick Roy said they can take away some learning […]

The Florida Panthers (13-12-2) will conclude a disappointing six-game homestand when they host the rising New York Islanders (16-10-3) late this afternoon at Amerant Bank Arena. Sam Bennett (1G/3A), Brad Marchand (1G/3A) and Carter Verhaeghe (2G/1A) combined for eleven points in Florida’s wild 7-6 overtime victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets that saw Bennett take a pass from Marchand and beat Elvis Merzlikins with four seconds to go in the extra session. Seth Jones had a goal and an as...

Their march against recent Cup winners and their back-to-back weekend continues early this evening with a visit to the Panthers. Florida is also playing […]

For the second time in a week, Ilya Sorokin had the Tampa Bay Lightning’s number. After he stopped 27-of-28 shots in the Lightning’s 2-1 loss on December 3, he was even better on Saturday night, denying all 32 shots they threw at him in a 2-0 win. Calum Ritchie broke the scoreless tie in the third period and Casey Cizikas sealed the win with an empty-net goal. Jonas Johansson, making his second start in a row, stopped 17-of-18 shots. Johansson started in place of Andrei Vasilevskiy, who m...

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 […]

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 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.

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. NHL.com ...
