Alright, I admit I’m a bit all over the place. But as Michael Leboff always says on Islanders Anxiety, “fan” is short for “fanatic,” right?
Just over a week ago, the 2-1 New York Islanders laid a turd against the New Jersey Devils on home ice and then looked a bit lackluster in back-to-back losses in the state of Florida. Sitting at 2-4, they had a gauntlet of a schedule of three straight Cup contenders. But so far, they have held their own, already exceeding my expectations.
