In a little over 24 hours, the New York Islanders start their season against the Carolina Hurricanes. After back-to-back trips to the Eastern Conference Final and losses to the eventual champion Tampa Bay Lightning, this team is hungry.

Both Mitch and I have high expectations for the Islanders in 2021-2022 and we will spend a majority of our episode talking about them today. We’ll go through key players for the team, the regular season, and where we think they finish.

The regular season got underway last night and there are some games on tonight as well so if you have FOMO, don’t worry we have you covered. We’ll also hit on the final roster and Mitch will update us on Islanders prospects in Down on the Farm as well.

Here’s what you can expect from episode 217:
