With half the season done, Mike and Dan discuss the many ups and downs that have left the Islanders on the playoff bubble.
They recap the disappointing Western Canada trip that saw the team look generally awful picking up just two of a possible eight points. They also discuss the early season successes and the cushion the Islanders had built that’s now all but used up, and how injuries to major players and extended slumps have started to cost them. They also lament the often surface-level coverage the team gets and how writers near and far often don’t understand the Islanders true reality.
