With 40 points in 58 games, it doesn’t look like Jordan Eberle had a strong year for the New York Islanders, but context is key because it was a good year for him.

With 40 points in 58 games, it’s surprising to hear some fans think that Jordan Eberle needs to be better for the New York Islanders. Now in this third year with the team, and the second year since signing a five-year $27.5 million extension.

Sure, a 40 point season doesn’t look great for Eberle or for any player on the books for $5.
