The New York Islanders are at a crossroads and GM Lou Lamoriello has some tough choices to make before the NHL Trade Deadline in 2 weeks. Today we break down the three options he has and how each choice would effect the team in the short and long term.

Lou could do nothing and take his chances with the team he has now, he could add another player or two and try to nail down a playoff spot or he can start to trade away some veteran pieces and try to get younger, faster and stockpile picks and prospects for a retool.

We also discuss your questions about the leadership of the team both by the coach and the players and on team accountability.

All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
