Islanders Trade Can Wait Until Offseason

Islanders Trade Can Wait Until Offseason

November 18th, 2014 Theres's a lot of discussion regarding these New York Islanders and if they should look to make a trade for someone. Names such as Keith Yandle, Evander Kane (which may be partially my fault for proposing this so many times,) and others have popped up in weeks past. Now, these sorts of discussions are beginning to heat up largely due to...
Why The Islanders Fourth Line Needs Michael Grabner

Why The Islanders Fourth Line Needs Michael Grabner

October 28th, 2014 If you were to ask ten Islander fans what they think of speedy Michael Grabner, there's a good chance you'd get ten different answers. One might say that he's destined to reclaim his form from his rookie season. Another might say that he's a solid two way player, best suited for penalty kill time. Yet another might say that he's a bust...
Tavares and Strome: Islanders Match Made in Heaven

Tavares and Strome: Islanders Match Made in Heaven

October 25th, 2014 I wrote earlier before the season that the Islanders were going to have a lot of options for the first line left wing. In a somewhat surprising decision, the winner of the competition was Cory Conacher, a free agent addition to the team this past offseason. Now that Anders Lee has been recalled and Ryan Strome has tallied six points on...
For Islanders, Early Success A Taste of Things to Come

For Islanders, Early Success A Taste of Things to Come

October 15th, 2014 The Islanders won their home opener, as well as their first game this season, and went on the road to beat the Rangers at Madison Square Garden. That puts them squarely at 3-0-0 to start the season, the first time that feat has been accomplished by an Islander team since Peter Laviolette was the head coach back in 2001-02. The...
Islanders Playoff Ready with Boychuk and Leddy?

Islanders Playoff Ready with Boychuk and Leddy?

October 8th, 2014 The Islanders had one of the best offseason's in franchise history, highlighted by the acquisition of defensemen Johnny Boychuk and Nick Leddy. Both players come from teams with Stanley Cup championships under their belts, and surely hope to make a run at another. However, before we get ahead of ourselves, let's ask the question- do...
Does the Islanders Defense Need Reinforcements?

Does the Islanders Defense Need Reinforcements?

September 29th, 2014 The Islanders have had a great offseason, but there's one glaring hole- the defense. Garth Snow has done an excellent job of bringing in talent between the pipes, as well as acquiring depth at the forward positions. However, defensively the team failed to improve from outside the organization much. With  Calvin de Haan and Lubomir...
The Left Wing: Islanders Options Are Plentiful

The Left Wing: Islanders Options Are Plentiful

September 17th, 2014 For what the Islanders might have lacked in recent history in terms of defense and goaltending, they have had a bright spot on the first line left-wing. For years, Matt Moulson manned the position until he was dealt for the even more talented Thomas Vanek last season. Now with both of those players being on different teams this season, a...
Islander Fans Shouldn't Forget About These Islanders

Islander Fans Shouldn't Forget About These Islanders

September 10th, 2014 With the 2014-15 NHL season just around the corner, Islander fans have officially begun preparing for the swan song of Nassau Coliseum as the home for the New York Islanders. Several sites have begun to post about their favorite memories of the Coliseum and about how the team should honor certain players for the final year here....
