The New York Islanders have won two straight games to get back to NHL .500 and tonight's game will be their 30th game of the season. We discuss why this week's three games games, a home game against the Los Angeles Kings followed by a home-and-home with the Chicago Blackhawks, will tell us a lot more about where this team stands for the rest of the season and beyond.

Plus, Patrick Roy made a curious decision to pair defenseman Noah Dobson with rookie Isaiah George. We explain why this may have worked well despite the lack of logic at first.

And we have a full preview of tonight's game against the red-hot Kings. 

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