It’s Saturday night hockey. Surely things will be fine. The New York Islanders will attempt to reverse their opening night loss as the Anaheim Ducks come to town.
The Ducks struggled last year but they have lots of young talent on the rise.
For the Islanders...not much news so far but we’ll update if there are any significant lineup hints during the day. Will Kieffer Bellows be replaced? Will Ilya Sorokin get another start or will the Isles alternate a bit to begin the season? You know, those kinds of burning Game 2 of 82 questions.
