Tara Laumenede got the news while she was watching the Rangers game on Sunday night. Wait . . . the Rangers?
"Not because I’m a Ranger fan, obviously," she said, "but because if they were going to win [over the Penguins] it would put the Islanders in a better position [in the standings]."
Such is the level of Islanders’ fans passion, and why it was so welcome to have at least some of them at Nassau Coliseum on Thursday night for the first time in more than a year.
