What are the odds the New York Islanders make it three wins in a row against the Washington Capitals tonight? I know, not great. But man does it feel good to talk about victories.
Getting two wins and four points up on the board really help the Isles erase the gap that was starting to form between them and the rest of the teams in the Metropolitan Division.
Before tonight’s game, the Islanders are two points back of Carolina in 7th and five points out of a wild-card spot. Another two points tonight and the Isles could see them jump up to 8th in the division and three points out of a wild-card.
