New York Islanders Season Outlook

 Hello there New York Islanders fans, me and Bobby are coming to you from the nautical mile in Freeport. 

New York Islanders hockey is finally back! I am giving you a season outlook as a diehard Islanders fan and NHL fanatic. 

 

Coming into the 2023-2024 NHL regular season, the Islanders are bringing back practically every player from last year’s roster. This time, I believe the new addition of Bo Horvat will build more chemistry with Mathew Barzal. I am looking forward to seeing the connections that they can continue to improve upon. 

The big news over this off season was the resigning of Ilya Sorokin to an 8-year extension. Semyon Varlomov also received an extension adding 4 years to his isles run. The Islanders roster is not full of young guns, but what they lack in youth they make up for in experience. Most critics consider the average roster age for the isles to be too high. There is something to be said about experience on the ice, especially in today’s NHL. 

 

The Islanders got off to a good start this past Saturday, defeating the Sabres 3-2. They picked up their first win of the season, and at home no less. 

 

Tonight, at UBS Arena the house will be rocking once again, as the NY Islanders go for a 2-0 start against the up-and-coming Arizona coyotes. Matt Dunba and Clayton Keller spearhead the young Coyotes team facing Ilya Sorokin between the pipes. Hopefully the NY Islanders can light the lamp and do the YES chant a couple more times tonight. 

You can catch all of the action tonight at 7:30 on MSG. LETS GO ISLANDERS BRING HOME ANOTHER W! 

 

YES YES YES!
