EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — Barry Trotz cautioned he has been patient with some Islanders struggling to produce. But he also seemed to indicate his patience had limits.
That was after the Islanders’ sub-par effort in Monday night’s 3-0 loss to the Ducks. The coach did not make wholesale changes at Tuesday’s practice at the Toyota Sports Performance Center but he did reveal he has spoken privately to top-line wings Anders Lee and Jordan Eberle, both who fall into the struggling category.
