DO OR DIE x1000 For The Islanders

Hello New York Islander Fans! I am coming to you live from PNC Arena in North Carolina where the Islanders get set to take on the Carolina Hurricanes. The puck drops at 7pm eastern time. Coming into tonight's action the Islanders have 88 points and are currently in third place in the wild card running behind Toronto Maple Leaves. The New York Rangers clinched the first wild card spot so its a battle between the Maple Leaves and the Islanders. With three games remaining in the Islander season their destiny is out of there hands. The Maple Leaves have to lose their remaining games in order for the Islanders to have any shot of making the playoffs. For the Islanders every game is like an elimination playoff game and have to win out for that chance to make it to the "Dance". The Hurricanes are 19th on the power plays, 5th on penalty kills and 18th under goals against. where as the Islanders are 28th on their power plays, 12th on the penalty kills and 25th under goals against. It's been a tough decision who should get the start in net for the Islanders tonight but Jaroslav Halak will get the nod. He will go up against  goalie Eddie Lack that is starting for the Hurricanes. If the Islanders manage to win tonight they will be one step closer to the playoffs. Even thought 2/3 of their remaining games are on the road the Islanders, have won their last three games away. Playing away from home, which sounds like a disadvantage might be a good thing for because the fact that they won the last three games as visitors. Hopefully the Islanders can pick up a big two points to keep this Cinderella story alive. That is all for now, reporting live from PNC Arena in North Carolina. this has been Mr. Lightning. thank you for reading. LETS GO ISLANDERS!!!!!
