Islanders need to convert extra chances under Patrick Roy into goals
In the eight games since Patrick Roy took over as head coach, the Islanders have looked like the better team. They have more control over the puck.

Why Patrick Roy put Islanders through grueling practice
For quite some time, islanders have relied on their culture. This is a veteran team, they’ve won a playoff series, and they know what it takes.
