Finally! Last night, the New York Islanders losing streak came to a close with a 5-3 win over the Ottawa Senators. We'll start out episode 225 by going through the tail end of the losing streak and what changed when they finally got their first win.

Also, we want to get into Oliver Wahlstrom. He's been scoring a lot more goals recently and in the postgame Barry Trotz says that he wants Oliver to develop into a top-line wing but he's not quite there yet.

Mitch will also share his findings from his interviews during Down on the Farm and we'll get into what's trending on Isles Twitter. Here's what you can expect from tonight's Eyes on Isles Podcast:

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.
