The Islanders return home for four games, attempting to re-establish some early season momentum. After starting the season with five points in their first three games, the Isles dropped two one-goal contests over the weekend. With news of Michael Grabner replacing Matt Moulson at left wing on the Tavares line, it appears Jack Capuano is shaking things up early-Moulson will now line up with Peter Regin and Cal Clutterbuck. What do you think of this early season shuffling? How long do you think these changes are in effect? Time will only tell-so head out to the Coliseum tonight to support your team after a few tough losses! For those fans that don't forget, the last time the Islanders were in the playoffs prior to 2012-13, they lost to Buffalo in the playoffs six years prior. Does this game have a "revenge" feel to it? Surely a stretch, but anything to add some juice to a matchup with a zero win team!
Shameless self-promotion
If you can't make it to the Coliseum tonight, come out to Boss Crokers (1871 Wantagh ave., Wantagh NY) for Road Ice Travels 1st viewing party of the season featuring the Isles vs the Sabres! We have some nice food/drink specials, and ticket giveaways of lower level seats to future Islanders games! So come down and meet some fellow Isles fans and maybe even win some tickets! The game starts at 7pm and we will be raffling tickets off during both intermissions. Hope to see everyone there!
