Though things have been pretty exceptional this season, the Islander have hit their first rough patch of the year. Losers of 7 of their last 9 games, the team now finds itself looking up in a division they once sat atop of. Despite the returns of Kyle Okposo, Frans Neilsen and Nick Leddy from the injured list the gals hjave not quite come with rehularity, especially in the last three contests.
As many know the best team almost never wins out in the NHL Playoffs, the hottest team does. That is why it is very important for the Islander to make headway. However if they continue to stumble the could find themselves in precarious spot of having to dig down deep to make a remarkable run through the field of 16. Momentum is key and the Islanders have been riding a wave of it since the start of the season. They must re-acquire the confidence that has propelled them all year and bring the energy back in their direction.
