Good morning, New York
Islander fans, this is your favorite sports reporter coming to you from my
house on this rainy day bringing you all the latest information on the orange
and blue as they prepare for game one of the 2024 Stanley Cup playoffs against
the Carolina Hurricanes. The New York Islanders are getting hot at the right
time. They have secured points in their last eight games, having won their last
six. In the middle of January, the Isles made a coaching change by hiring Patrick
Roy. It was rocky at first but then the boys
found their chemistry with their new head coach. Players like Matthew Barzal,
Kyle Palmieri, and Brock Nelson have led the charge down the stretch. Now, in a
rematch of last years 1st round, they will try to take down the
Carolina Hurricanes.
For the Hurricanes, some
players to look out for include Sebastian Aho, Seth Jarvis, and Marty Necas, along
with trade deadline acquisitions Evgeny Kuznetsov and Jake Guentzel. Carolina is a very strong team, having
finished 2nd in the Metro just behind the President’s Trophy winning
New York Rangers. For the Islanders, I am looking at Bo Horvat, Brock and
Barzal to play a huge factor in this series. If the New York Islanders want advance,
they will also need the goalie tandem of Sorokin and Varlamov to come up with
timely saves.
Game 1 is 5pm this Saturday,
and you can catch all the action on TBS or MSG+. Let’s go Islanders!! YES YES
YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
