SBN: Lighthouse Hockey (Dan Saraceni) —
From a potentially hated Ranger to a short time Islanders savior. Vivo El Cubano Grande. Joined by returning guest Nick Giglia, we celebrate goalie Al Montoya, who took a long road to the NHL and looked for a half season like more found money for the scrappy Islanders. Montoya had all the makings of an Islanders villain including getting drafted high by the Rangers and a preseason fight...

[blows raspberries] | Photo by Bill Wippert/NHLI via Getty Images I thought these guys turned a corner and weren’t going to do this no-show thing in big games anymore. My mistake I guess! They weren’t going to win six games in a row every time. They can’t win every game. And they did fly back from the West Coast and had to stop in Buffalo before going home. But last night, the New...

Engvall has been good on his new line. | Photo by Ben Ludeman/NHLI via Getty Images The Isles’ next opponent, the Sabres, waxed the Red Wings to drop Detroit back out of the wild card again. Enter the Islanders. The New York Islanders are back in a playoff spot after falling out following Monday’s loss to the Los Angeles Kings. That’s because they’re even in points with but have...

Could not beat. | Photo by Juan Ocampo/NHLI via Getty Images The Isles are shut out in L.A. but do not return from California empty handed. The Islanders once again were not able to pull off their first California sweep, falling via 3-0 shutout to the Kings on Monday night. It was the traditional road trip challenge, with the rested Kings finishing up their homestand while the Isles...

There's a question that Florida Panthers general manager Bill Zito likes to ask people. ''What's two plus two?''
SBN: Lighthouse Hockey (Steven E. Smith) —
There’s our deadline acquisition. | Photo by Dave Reginek/NHLI via Getty Images The Islanders did not make any trades in the weeks leading up to the deadline, but made a couple depth moves early on and hired a new coach. It was a fairly busy trade deadline around the NHL, but the New York Islanders chose not to participate. And frankly, that was probably the right move. There...

Taking care of business. | Photo by Andreea Cardani/NHLI via Getty Images Lou must be encouraged! The New York Islanders are back, baby. Today is trade deadline day, and the Islanders have won five straight games to put themselves back in the thick of the playoff picture. In fact, by points percentage, they’re in a wild card spot ahead of the Tampa Bay Lightning; they’re two...
SBN: Lighthouse Hockey (Dominik) —
We win here, right? That’s what we do? | Photo by Kavin Mistry/NHLI via Getty Images The Isles visit a team that just traded Duclair, with more to come. The New York Islanders visit a reeling, wounded San Jose Sharks team that is sitting or trading players ahead of tomorrow’s trade deadline. Anthony Duclair was already schedule to miss tonight for trade reasons, and his deal to...

Let’s keep the Revenge Train rolling, yeah? | Photo by Mike Stobe/NHLI via Getty Images The Isles need a productive trip; meanwhile, Tarasenko, Hanifin, many other names already on the move ahead of Friday’s deadline. While we were still enjoying the fruits of that comeback win over the Blues, the Islanders were doing the long haul flight to begin a late-season West Coast trip. ...

Barzy surely said hello to his old buddy. | Photo by Steven Ryan/NHLI via Getty Images The confidence continues to grow under Roy, with new lines and new systems. The New York Islanders came back from down 2-0 to take a 4-2 regulation win from the St. Louis Blues. Despite falling behind, the Islanders mostly controlled the game and got the result they deserved. They now trail the...
NY Post (Mollie Walker) —
The loss counted as the Blueshirts’ second in a row and the second of a month filled with benchmark opponents.
NY Post (Action Network, Michael Leboff) —
Two of the NHL’s best — and hottest — teams will do battle at Madison Square Garden on Monday night.
SBN: Lighthouse Hockey (Steven E. Smith) —
Goal no. 2. | Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images They need to keep it going, but what a week. That throttling of the Boston Bruins , led by a first-period natural hat trick for Long Island’s own Kyle Palmieri, was a statement win to cap off a tough but critical week of New York Islanders hockey. Just a week ago, we were writing off this season as dead and lost and were looking...

All-Star linemates to playoff chase enemies. | Photo by Gregory Fisher/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images He’s been red hot. So have the Red Wings. It wasn’t a great night on the scoreboard if you’re like me and still holding out hope that the New York Islanders can make the playoffs this season. It wasn’t a terrible night, but it could’ve been better. The Philadelphia Flyers...
