A look around the web at the most recent New York Islanders news. Make Eyes On Isles your go to website for all things Islanders.

With still a couple months before the season starts the New York Islanders have some question marks heading into the season. Now is the time to think about what they can do or what the roster will look like on opening night.

Justin Weiss tried to answer some of these questions that the Islanders have. Who will be in net? Will Ryan Strome bounce back, etc?

All valid questions and interesting story lines as we are still in the summer a ways away from hockey. The question that stuck out to me was is the third line going to be a weakness for this Islanders team.

The Islanders third line is definitely going to be their weakest line. With Nikolay Kulemin and Josh Bailey on that line it would be more of a defensive minded line. It also depends who is centering the line. Will it be Strome? Or will Mathew Barzal make the team? Only time will tell.

We took a look at Jack Capuano as he is ranked in the lower tier of coaches. We think the ranking is fair but does this mean Capuano is necessarily a bad coach? (Eyes On Isles)
