Islanders Anxiety - Episode 316 - An Old Stale Cigarette
Recapping what could go down as one of the most forgettable wins of of this Islanders era. Mike and Dan discuss the Islanders’ win over the Sharks on Brent Sutter Ring of Honor Night that, while pleasant enough, did little to change anything about this team or its season.
For once, the Islanders took care of business beating a bad, under-the-weather opponent. Too bad it comes more than halfway through a season in which they’ve been farting around on the ice and with our emotions. A follow-up run against Metro Division opponents who are actually trying only serves to make the victory even more hollow, assuming the Islanders win their customary one or less games this week.
We also discuss the warm and welcome Sutter ceremony and bring back for just the second time Master Pens Theater, as the Penguins say goodbye to a guy they shouldn’t have said hello to in the first place, and the guy who opened the door doesn’t get blamed at all.
