Islanders’ Ilya Sorokin could lose rest if Marcus Hogberg’s injury is serious
A lot of things had to start falling into place at once for the Islanders to win seven of their last nine games and finally start to get their season going in the right direction. One underrated factor is Marcus Hogberg's emergence as a solid backup goaltender. Hogberg not only played well in his own […]
Tony DeAngelo makes bigger impact than expected in Islanders’ debut
My first impression is that it could do worse. After an entire shift of Saturday night's game against the Hurricanes at UBS Arena, it became clear that the Islanders needed Tony DeAngelo more than anyone expected. Less than a minute into the game, the order increased exponentially as Ryan Purock went down the tunnel with […]
Islanders’ hard-fought win spoiled by two more injuries
Islanders are playing the best hockey this season, but suddenly faces the crisis of an injury as much as they were. As soon as Noah Dobson's right foot injury hole, Islanders lost Ryan Puroc in the first shift of the Kalorinian match against Carolina, which won three to two on Saturday. Just in case, the […]
Islanders happy to have Tony DeAngelo in the fold
Tony DeAngelo's first morning on Long Island consisted of a quick skate, a quick introduction to his new teammates, and getting ready to play in his first game in his new home. It probably won't be the easiest path for DeAngelo to join a new team. DeAngelo was granted waivers Saturday at 2 p.m., making […]
Brock Nelson’s OT goal leads Islanders to win over Hurricanes
Tony DeAngelo moved in, Ryan Pulock left after one shift, Ilya Sorokin came in overtime for Marcus Hogberg, and the Islanders continued their momentum with a comeback win against the supercharged Hurricanes. We continued the momentum. Other than that, not much was happening at UBS Arena on Saturday. With 48 games in, it's that time […]
Islanders refuse to lay down on playoff chase with win over Flyers
Is this important? This is a big problem for the islanders who are doubling this season in the twin track. While continuing to send a signal that the front office does not lie, die, or sell parts, I am finding a game on ice. This is a Friday night message, the islanders won six games, […]
Islanders add ex-Ranger Tony DeAngelo for rest of season
During the seven weeks, Tony Deangelo became an island in New York, believing that his NHL career was over. The islanders announced on Friday that they have taken a one -year contract with a Lightning Rod former Rangers Defenseman to a one -year contract. It has recovered from heart surgery with Mike Riley at night. […]
Undrafted Marc Gatcomb carving out Islanders role: ‘Pleasant surprise’
It was almost a year ago that an unruffled Kyle McLean was intended to be a temporary call, and won a permanent place on the fourth line of the islanders. It's still too early to say if MARC GATCOMB, a non -draft player, is on the same road. But in three games to his NHL […]
Is Islanders dream of playoff chase worth not making a deal?
The Islanders have nine games remaining before the Four Nations suspension, but if you're Lou Lamoriello, you've got to like what you're watching. The Islanders enter Friday's home game against the Flyers with a four-point deficit, but have won five of their past seven games. At least on the surface, it doesn't seem like it's […]
Defiant Long Islanders embrace Chiefs, Warriors mascots as NY state threatens to pull funding over ‘offensive’ team names
They are showing fighting spirit. Two Long Island communities are embracing Native American-themed school team names and histories despite their woke missions. Residents say it is absurd that clinging to tradition means losing state aid. The Massapequa Chiefs and Wantagh Warriors have no plans to change their names or images by the government's June deadline. […]
