Tonight’s game in Philadelphia will be the 41st game of the season for the New York Islanders. It officially marks the halfway point for the Islanders and I think it’s safe to say we still don’t know what to expect from this team.
Offensively they have been lead by a dynamic first line of Josh Bailey, John Tavares, and Anders Lee. Bailey is tied for the league lead in assists (Both Bailey and Jakub Voracek have 38.) Bailey is also second in the league in scoring (50 points) and Tavares is tied for third (49).
