The Islanders — and all of us — hope to recover from a pointless weekend in Pittsburgh (okay, we weren’t actually in Pittsburgh) by grabbing another win against the Sabres tonight.
We are reminded that, while the victories last week in Buffalo were convincing, they were hardly by a large margin. The Sabres recovered by finally getting their first win since before their Covid break, on Saturday vs. the Devils.
So this game is hardly a gimme, and it’s followed by a visit from the Bruins and another pair against the Penguins. Leave your First Islanders Goal picks for tonight right here.
