Some nights your goalie stands on his head and stuns an offense led by the most dangerous forward in the world, some afternoons you’re down 4-0 before the other team has gotten its 12th shot. The Islanders lost 4-2 in Calgary despite outshooting and outchancing the Flames, though still making enough mistakes to do themselves […]
I am still reeling from that Ilya Sorokin performance on Thursday in Edmonton. Ye gods, that was a masterpiece. But anyway, on to the next one. The Islanders are in Calgary for an afternoon meeting, and David Rittich will start against his former team (though as he noted, there aren’t a lot of former teammates […]

Sometimes, all you need is one. That was the case on Thursday evening in Edmonton for the visiting New York Islanders, as star goaltender Ilya Sorokin turned aside all 35 shots that the Oilers threw his way for a 1-0 victory. On a night where the Oilers did almost everything right, one mistake proved to…
After falling to the Predators in overtime on Tuesday, the Oilers were back at home to close out their season series against the New York Islanders. The Islanders took the first round back in October, and if our boys were going to repay the favour, they would need to execute a whole lot better than…
After an even first period, the Edmonton Oilers really took over the game tonight and the New York Islanders looked lost. But while Connor Ingram was pretty good for the Oilers, turning away 17 of 18 shots, he was no Ilya Sorokin. Sorokin rebounded nicely from a rough night in Winnipeg, picking up his fifth […]
There’s nothing more boring than a game against the New York Islanders. That was the fate of the Edmonton Oilers on Thursday evening. After 60 minutes of “action”, the Oilers fell 1-0 to Ilya Sorokin. Let’s take a look at what happened. The lone goal came with about six minutes left in the game on…
The Islanders’ road train is in Alberta for the end of the week, with a meeting vs. the Oilers in Edmonton on the docket. The goalie matchup looks like Ilya Sorokin opposite Connor Ingram. It appears the lineup will remain the same as the 5-4 loss in Winnipeg, including Max Tsyplakov as a scratch and […]
Matthew Schaefer is the youngest player in the NHL at 18 years and 132 days old, yet he’s one of the most exciting players in the league. The young New York Islanders defenceman’s skating has been compared to Bobby Orr and Paul Coffey. He’s been incredibly smooth as he navigates the icy NHL landscape for…
Kris Knoblauch chose Connor Ingram over Calvin Pickard for tonight’s game, and the message is becoming clearer: Ingram’s earned his spot, at least for now. We all know the Edmonton Oilers can only carry three goaltenders for so long before someone has to head to Bakersfield. Tonight, the only place Pickard is going is the…
This is the second straight time the Edmonton Oilers host a team that just lost to the Winnipeg Jets. The New York Islanders make their annual pilgrimage to Edmonton following a 5-4 loss, as they glide across the continent on a season-long road trip. The group upfront took the blame, despite coming back from three…

The Islanders reversed a 3-0 deficit in the second period but promptly fell behind by two in a sloppily played second period by both sides that typified their Tuesday night in Winnipeg. The result was a 5-4 regulation loss — the Isles got one back with a sixth attacker after several never-give-up efforts to prevent […]
Recap of the game.
The month of December wasn’t a great one for Winnipeg Jets’ goaltenders, as it only provided Connor Hellebuyck & Eric Comrie with one win each. Now that the calendar has flipped over to January, the masked men have already equaled that plateau before the mid-month mark.
The True North franchise is currently on their 4th multi-game winning streak of the NHL’s 2025-26 campaign, after posting victories over the Los Angeles Kings & New Jersey Devils, and will be hoping to extend that versus t...
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
The Islanders are in Winnipeg, the Land of Butchie, where the Jets are just above the league basement but have finally won two in a row. Meanwhile, the Jets’ former coach landed a new gig after the NHL’s latest firing. For the Islanders, a lineup change that is consistent and a non-change that is out […]

Mike and Dan recap a productive week for the Islanders and celebrate the performances of Ilya Sorokin, Anthony Duclair and Simon Holmstrom. The Islanders grabbed five of a possible six points in three very different games this week. One was a blowout that starred Duclair and also required 44 saves from Sorokin, giving him a […]
Fresh off stealing one from one of the league’s few top teams (thanks, Ilya and Simon!), the Islanders now head to the President’s Trophy winner that has fallen on hard, near-bottom times — though the Jets have now won consecutive games for the first time since November. Before the Isles got to Winnipeg, they enjoyed […]
A third-period collapse saw another winnable game slip away from the Wolf Pack.
Simon Holmstrom had his biggest game as an Islander and Ilya Sorokin kept the Wild barrage at bay as the Isles won in overtime, 4-3 in Minnesota. This was an occasion where the Islanders were not the better side, but they refused to wilt nor slow their tempo against one of the top teams in […]
The Islanders road trip chapter 2 is Saturday night in Minnesota, where Bill Guerin is riding high after acquiring Quinn Hughes while absorbing shots for not taking Your Favorite Player on the U.S. Olympic team that will play next month in the half-constructed rink in Italy. The Wild are tied with Dallas at 60 points […]
