Islanders Anxiety - Episode 327 - You Can’t Kill This Team

Mike and Dan discuss the Islanders’ latest point streak and unlikely reappearance in the Eastern Conference playoff race.

With a makeshift lineup full of forgotten players and total nobodies, the Islanders have risen from the ashes through hard work and (finally) a little luck. They came from behind to beat the Penguins, toppled the Habs in overtime (not that anyone from Montreal even noticed them) and gave away a point to Calgary while not playing their best. It’s a feel good story that only we’re paying attention to and is still also frustrating to watch unfold.

It continues this week with a huge game against Columbus, a game against a Western Conference counterpart in Vancouver and then a rough back-to-back in Tampa and Raleigh.
