A public service announcement from your friendly neighborhood Islanders fan.
By now everyone knows the historic missteps of the New York Islanders. Sports Illustrated keeps a handy "Islanders Follies" slideshow updated at all times in case they need to fire it out at a moment's notice to remind everyone.
But this year's Islanders team was a different kind of weird. They were good! They had 100 points! For the second straight year! To do that, they had to win bunches of games. So many games that sometimes I want to travel back in time so that a younger version of myself can smack me upside the head for not enjoying it more, knowing that wins aren't always easy to come by.
