With the New York Islanders 2024-25 season a week away, we have our bold predictions for the upcoming season. We break down everything from how many games will Ilya Sorokin play to how many goals will Bo Horvat have. Will the penalty kill and power play be better? What affect will Patrick Roy have on this team by being here from day one?

And how will newcomers like Anthony Duclair and Maxim Tsplakov fare in their first season on the Island?

We also predict whether the Isles will make the playoffs and how far they may get if they do and how close they'll be if they miss.

The New York Islanders are winding down training camp and now, we have a good idea of what Patrick Roy expects from this team and the type of game he wants them to play.

We also have six players battling for two or three spots, depending on whether Lou Lamoriello can clear up enough cap space to have a full, 23-man roster. Which players are likely to make the team and why? And how plays and who watches from the press box? We break it all down.

Plus, the Isles are set to name Bo Horvat as their new alternate captain replacing the departed Cal Clutterbuck. We discuss the impact of that and why Horvat deserves it.

The NHL’s Metro Division feels like the division in the most flux going into the 2024-25 season; the New York Islanders and Washington Capitals barely squeaked into last year’s playoffs, the Carolina Hurricanes lost some key talent, and the New York Rangers have a President’s Trophy to defend. In this special Locked On NHL Season Preview Round Table, Gil Martin (Locked On Islanders), Jon Chik (Locked On Rangers), Zach Martin (Locked On Hurricanes) and Dan Holmi (Locked On Capitals) discuss whether their teams can stay atop a division with some teams hungry to punch back into the postseason behind them. Can the Islanders continue to get by on goaltending? Can the Rangers repeat as the league’s best regular season team? Can Pierre-Luc Dubous ignite Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals? And can the Hurricanes keep their contention window open? All that, plus FanDuel points over/unders, biggest offseason additions, breakout players, and the threats to derail each team’s seasons.

The New York Islanders have made their initial roster cuts. We'll discuss some prospects who were sent down to Bridgeport and whether they made progress in training camp. Plus, the battle for the final forward spots on the roster which will be an interesting one.

Also, Patrick Roy moved Maxim Tsyplakov up to the second line in practice Sunday. Could he earn that spot to start the season after a strong training camp so far?

And we review Friday's solid win over the Devils and discuss what to look for tonight against the Flyers.

In a major case of deja vu, the New York Islanders allowed five goals in the final six minutes of the game, blew a 4-1 third period lead and lost 6-4 to the New York Rangers in their second preseason game. We'll discuss why it matters and in what ways it doesn't. The important thing is how do Patrick Roy and the players respond to this?

We'll also discuss Anthony Duclair's preseason debut with the Isles and how he looked out there with Bo Horvat and Mathew Barzal for the first time. We'll also discuss our highlights and lowlights of the game.

And Thomas Hickey gets a new broadcast job that won't take him away from Isles broadcasts full time.

The New York Islanders used a first round pick on Simon Holmstrom but thus far, he's played bottom-six minutes for the team over his first two NHL seasons. But Patrick Roy is starting him on the second line in training camp with Brock Nelson and Kyle Palmieri. Is Holmstrom ready to take that leap and be a legitimate top six forward? We discuss it on today's show.

Plus, if Ilya Sorokin is not ready to start the season on time, who is most likely to serve as Semyon Varlamov's backup? We break down the top candidates and explain who the favorite is and why.

And we discuss what to look for tonight when the Islanders face the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden.
