Brett returns to the show to discuss the last week in New York Islanders hockey, which felt like a wash despite trending upwards. There was finally more good than bad, but there's still a lot of work for the Islanders to do before our confidence returns.

James' return to the podcast was familiar; we immediately found our groove, but it may have been because the New York Islanders haven't changed their ways since we last spoke in April. We covered everything from Isaiah George's rise to top Isles defenseman, Noah Dobson's fall from grace, more blown leads, and James takes us completely off the rails by talking about a particular free agent that shall not be named.

All that and more in this week's episode.

In his second appearance in as many weeks, Brett and Jon cover the last week in New York Islanders hockey. Has Brett's positivity disappeared? Can the Islanders bounce back after losing so many key players to injury? Are we at a breaking point? It gets late early when you rack up wins at the start of a season. We discuss if the Islanders can bounce back and what's next.

All that and more in this week's episode.

This week, Brett returns to have a conversation we've all had over the last three seasons. We try to find a glimmer of hope in a season that the New York Islanders have set to repeat, but it remains to be seen if it's all for naught.

Episode 187 - "A Butt-kicking Disguised at a Comeback" - Ethan Sears

As the title suggests, the New York Islanders failed to hold their 3-0 lead in game two, losing any momentum from game one, and dropped 0-2 in their series with the Carolina Hurricanes. There's not a lot of hope in this week's episode, but we cover the first two games of the series and try to figure out some of the deeper problems on the Island.
