Josh Bailey is producing, and Islanders fans are getting behind him

It used to be the way fans would rib Josh Bailey.

“Hey, Josh Bailey,” they’d sing to the tune of the DJ Otzi version of Bruce Channel’s “Hey Baby.”

Then it goes, “Ho, Ha. I wanna know, will you score a goal?”

The song, which is believed to have originated in Section 329, for many years was a dig at Bailey’s low scoring totals — and the fandom’s general antipathy for their long-tenured winger. But things change, and Bailey, who’s now scored in both games of the playoffs and put together three straight 50-plus point seasons, has made fans change their tune, too.
