For the New York Islanders, there have been quite a few early games this season, especially in the calendar year 2022. Most of them have been home games, but today, they’ll be on Boston ice when the clock strikes noon.
The Boston Bruins host the Isles for a 12:30 p.m. start, which means warmups begin at 12:00. Hockey players, notoriously creatures of habit even more than other athletes, probably will be eating their salmon and fettucine around 8:00 a.m., as alluded to by Anson Carter the other day—I think he said spaghetti and meatballs around 6:00 a.
