Capellini: Beloved Ledecky Will Turn Into Villain Soon If Islanders Keep Failing

WFAN.com

Jon Ledecky throws around this idea of the Islanders winning a “fifth ring” as if he knows what it will take to get it done.

All indications are he has no clue.

The Islanders have been trying to add to their Stanley Cup championship haul for 35 years, but haven’t come close all that often since their original “drive for five” ended in the 1984 Final. There was, of course, the stellar run to the Eastern Conference finals back in 1993, but really that was an outlier, a freak occurrence, given the reality of what this franchise has been for as long as many care to remember.
