We’re back for episode 209 of the Eyes on Isles Podcast and we have a lot to get into today. First, we will get into the division. It’s been quiet around the league right now so why not look at some of the Islanders‘ divisional opponents.

It’s been a while since the Islanders have seen Columbus and Carolina so we’ll spend some time on them as well as the familiar faces of the Capitals, Flyers, Rangers, and Devils too.

Next, we have to get into the jersey ads. Starting next season, teams will have an advertisement on their jersey, just like the NBA does. People are freaking out about it so naturally, we will discuss and share whether we like the idea or not.

Finally, in Down on the Farm, Mitch will share his findings from prospects around the world. I’m sure we’ll spend some time on fan-favorite Aatu Raty. Here’s what you can expect from episode 209:

Topics

The Division

Looking at who has improved and who has taken a step back. What the expectations are for each team and how they match up against the Islanders.

Jersey Ads

We discussed it last year with the helmets now we will talk about it on the jerseys. The impact of the advertisements on the jersey and why they’re doing it.

Down on the Farm

Aatu Raty signs his ELC, and more from around the world with prospects who are playing right now.

Quiz

On the quiz, Mitch will pick a random player in Islanders history and I have to try to guess who that player is based on five clues. It’s usually a blast.

Social

In the social segment, we’ll answer questions and talk about the biggest stuff from Isles Twitter this past week.
