Islanders Anxiety - Episode 294 - Nothing Really Happens
Welcome Interstate Hobergs. Mike and Dan talk about about how there’s nothing to talk about regarding the Islanders, before turning their attention to division rivals facing each other in a playoff series.
So far, the offseason news for the Islanders has consisted of signing a third string goalie out of Sweden and Matt Martin having a birthday dinner at an Italian restaurant. If something happens, we’ll react to it, but there’s very little point in discussing maybes and could be’s.
Instead, we kvetch about the Rangers’ easy path to the Eastern Conference final and the Hurricanes’ annual disappearing act. Both teams are beloved for different reasons, which is tough on Islanders fans who feel like either the uncool kids in the cafeteria or like they’re taking crazy pills.
We’ll have a few words for another hated team on a special episode releasing Wednesday and we need your help to crown our Weirdest Islander of the Year. Details inside!
