Islanders Looking to Build On Playoff Success in 2020-21 Season

Islanders Looking to Build On Playoff Success in 2020-21 Season

January 13th, 2021 "On my deathbed, that’ll be one of the visions that will go through my head: We didn’t beat the Lightning," said head coach Barry Trotz. "And it doesn’t go away." (from 'Islanders want more after haunting playoff defeat,' New York Post, 01/04/2021). The New York Islanders came up short just two games from clinching a...

Islanders 12 Days of Hockeymas: 3 Memorable Hat Tricks

December 22nd, 2020 The ’12 Days of Christmas’ is a classic holiday song first published in its current form in 1908. In a nod to the classic carol, join The Hockey Writers as we count down the 12 Days of Hockeymas. Each day, we will provide you with a piece of hockey history as we eagerly await the start of the 2020-21 NHL season. A...
Islanders Milestones That Are Reachable in 2020-21 Season

Islanders Milestones That Are Reachable in 2020-21 Season

December 20th, 2020 The 2020-21 hockey season should be a lot of fun for the New York Islanders. They are coming off their second consecutive appearance in the postseason and their first trip to the Eastern Conference Finals since 1993. While the team has finally broken through, the Islanders have many players that could hit some personal milestones this...
Islanders' Center Depth is a Strength for 2020-21 Season

Islanders' Center Depth is a Strength for 2020-21 Season

November 19th, 2020 The New York Islanders are about as complete down the middle as any team in the NHL. Center depth is extremely important in the game today, and the Islanders have a clear advantage over many teams in this regard, even if there are holes elsewhere in the lineup. Now entering the third year under Barry Trotz, the team understands the...
Analyzing Brock Nelson's Progress as an Islander

Analyzing Brock Nelson's Progress as an Islander

November 17th, 2020 Brock Nelson was drafted to the Islanders with the 30th-overall pick in the first round of the 2010 NHL Draft. Since then, he’s played in seven NHL seasons, landing his first big pay day in 2019.

Islanders Can Benefit From Shortened 2020-21 Season

Islanders Can Benefit From Shortened 2020-21 Season

October 28th, 2020 It may not be what the fans or the NHL want, but the likelihood of getting a full 82-game 2020-21 regular season and playoffs completed by July is doubtful. With Gary Bettman announcing that the NHL is looking to have a start date of Jan. 1, it is possible the league could go back to what they did in 2012-13 when they had a 48-game...
Islanders' End of the Season Awards

Islanders' End of the Season Awards

September 21st, 2020 It was an incredible season for the New York Islanders in one of the more unique seasons ever.

Islanders' "Killer B's" Break Out in the 2020 NHL Playoffs

August 10th, 2020 The New York Islanders topped the Florida Panthers in their NHL Qualifying Round series, 3-1, and in convincing fashion. They had a rare offensive surge, scoring 13 goals in the four-game series, while characteristically only allowing seven goals against....
Islanders’ Second Line Must Be Ready to Play

Islanders’ Second Line Must Be Ready to Play

August 1st, 2020 The New York Islanders are set to begin their play-in series against the Florida Panthers on Aug. 1 when the NHL returns. If the Islanders want to win this series, they must be solid defensively, but the offense needs to be ready to go as well. Specifically, the second line has to take the pressure off of the first line if the Islanders...
Current Islanders' First Career Goals

Current Islanders' First Career Goals

February 15th, 2020 Scoring that first NHL goal is one of the best moments of any player's career. The puck is given to the player as a souvenir. Sometimes it takes that first goal to relax a player and really show their skills. With so many homegrown players on the team, many New York Islanders scored their first goal wearing the blue and orange. Let's...
Islanders Performances a Mixed Bag at All-Star Break

Islanders Performances a Mixed Bag at All-Star Break

January 27th, 2020 Over the last two seasons, the New York Islanders roster has been, in a word - unique. Outside of now two-time All-Star Mathew Barzal, there aren't any bonified stars on this team. The roster has a "more than the sum of its parts" type of construction, which has seen a lot of success. However, when some of those parts are...

Nelson Scores Twice, Islanders Pound Red Wings 8-2

January 15th, 2020 UNIONDALE, N.Y. — Brock Nelson scored twice and the New York Islanders routed the Detroit Red Wings 8-2 Tuesday night. New York scored three times in the first eight minutes, a rousing response after a lopsided road loss to the crosstown Rangers a night earlier. The league-worst Red Wings were out of it early, and Thomas Greiss...

Islanders' Mid-Season Report Card

January 7th, 2020 After one of the best starts in franchise history with a 10-game winning streak and 17-game point streak, the New York Islanders have come back to life and are tied for second place in their division at the halfway point of the season. They have 55 points, which sets them up for 110 if they continue on pace, but they will need to play...

Islanders' 3 Stars of the Week: Dec. 9-15

December 17th, 2019 While the New York Islanders' trip out west to California did not go well, their trip to Florida produced a pair of wins against the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Florida Panthers.
