The New York Islanders beat the Anaheim Ducks 6-1 last night, their sixth straight victory, to move back into a playoff spot for the first time since January.
However, despite the massive win, they acknowledged they weren’t at their best in the second period, acknowledgments we didn’t see enough under Lane Lambert.
#Isles win 6-1 and a lot of the talk is they know they could have been better in the second period. Coach Patrick Roy loved that.

That’s excellence right there.
