Man, I feel kinda bad for Islanders fans. That team is absolutely wasting Ilya Sorokin’s prime.
It sure isn' the dynastic team of the early '80's that's for sure but bad drafting for the most part,bad development of young talent and lack of cohesion,chemistry will do that to you plus having to compete with the Rangers and Devils who have lots of money,talent and skill and both do a better job of drafting/Developing talent...

Good points. I can’t think of a recent Isles draft pick who’s broken out.

A lot of post-game chatter about Burakovksy's "confidence being high", from both the player and Bylsma. Not sure why that's a hot topic atm, didn't really feel like he did a lot this game or last. I'm guessing it's because iirc he's the only player besides Mahura to score a goal?

Looks like I missed a great comeback, Gourde, Tanev and McCann coming through big for us once again--it seems a nightly occurrence lately. Thought that pass from Bura to McCann for the goal was one of the prettiest I've seen this year. What a nailbiter, though--probably would have taken a year off my life just watching it.
