After a season full of fun, excitement, and exceeding expectations until the very end, the New York Islanders bowed out of the 25-26 season in disappointing fashion. And instead of preparing to compete in the Stanley Cup playoffs, they're left heading home early searching for answers.

Sadly for everyone involved, the Islanders chose a really bad time to have the worst week of their season dropping four straight games in regulation to drop from potential home ice in the playoffs to barely hanging by a thread. In a pressure-filled dash to towards the end, the teams around them rose to the occasion while the Isles tumbled on the ice and on down the standings, costing head coach Patrick Roy his job on Easter Sunday. With only four games remaining, Peter DeBoer takes over as a last-ditch hope to salvage what long looked like a campaign extending into the post-season. Sean & Arthur cover the huge shakeup, what it means going forward, with former Islanders Micheal Haley and Josh Bailey joining the discussion.Follow HNiNY on all social media platforms at @hockeynightnySponsored by Raiser, Kenniff, & Lonstein Attorneys at LawRecorded at Floored MediaSubscribe to our friends at IslesFix newsletter!
