Islanders Anxiety - Episode 351 - A Great Long Island Night

Mike and Dan recap the Islanders' week of winning shootouts (!) and the big trades that went down in the NHL before the weekend. When was the last time the Islanders won two shootouts in the same week? With the same guy scoring both game-winners? Feels like never. We talk about the wins (and blown leads) against Vegas and Tampa Bay, and the big win over Anaheim in the middle. We're glad for the return of Marc Gatcomb and happy to be fully rewired into this fun, proud version of the Islanders. It was a fun week to be an fan, and even more fun to be in the building as they inducted Pat LaFontaine into the team's Hall of Fame, and Mike and his family celebrated his dad's birthday. We also look ahead to a week of winnable games and discuss the Penguins and Oilers swapping goalies and the Minnesota Wild getting Quinn Hughes.
