The Islanders have a chance to extend their winning streak to eleven (11?!) games this evening, with the Penguins paying a visit to Brooklyn.
Be there tonight if you can. The atmosphere at Barclays Center was good the other night against the Senators; I bet it will be even better against a hated division rival and recent playoff opponent.
Also, happy birthday to my brother. Too many birthdays in one family in one week.
Catching up with the team and coach at practice yesterday:
