Now that the Islanders are settling into the '25-'26 season, the team is finally starting to take shape. Good enough to squeeze out wins, but average enough to let points slip away. Is this win-some, lose-some what we should come to expect for the rest of the season? Or can the Isles find a way to settle things defensively and put more strikes in the win column? Arthur & Sean discuss it all and Chris Peters of FloHockey pays a visit to cover what's happening with the Islanders youth!Follow HNiNY on all social media platforms at @hockeynightnySponsored by Nok HockeySponsored by Raiser, Kenniff, & Lonstein Attorneys at LawRecorded at Floored MediaSubscribe to our friends at IslesFix newsletter!
