Islanders are turning it around!

Islanders are turning it around. They are starting to get healthy. (a couple injuries) last 4 games they are 3 wins and 1 overtime loss. They are starting to score more goals. They just won tonight, and moved ahead of Devils. Scratching and clawing their way back in the standings. Would it be crazy to hope for playoffs?

In the parity world of Gary Bettman, anything is possible.

Lets Go Islanders!!! Great game last night. It was fun to watch them smack around the devils up and down the ice. Good to see Bailey back in uniform.

Good for them. Nice to see that they're starting to win a few games.

But to answer the question - "yes" - it would be crazy to hope for the playoffs. They might be able to pass the Devils, the Leafs, and the Panthers..... but being this far back, this far into the season.... not going to happen. (I said the same thing about my team, Edmonton, a few weeks ago.... when they went on a very nice 5 wins in 6 game run).

would be interesting to see how well a fully healthy Islanders team does.

Great to see the Islanders punish the Habs in last night's blizzard. I was planning on attending that game if the weather wasn't what it was. Tavares got gipped of a certain goal in the second period.

Bettman only cares about his poster boys in Pittsburgh and Manhattan.

I just do not get it. They trade their best defensemen for a draft pick. Another miserable year getting worse by the minute.
