The New York Islanders do not play tonight. It’s their second day off in a row after a back-to-back. Although “day off” may be a misnomer because they’ll be on the ice in Raleigh this morning for practice; yesterday was a true day off.
Tomorrow night, the Islanders visit the hated Carolina Hurricanes, whom I hate. The Isles have earned points in 16 of their last 18, which is good, but they have dropped three of their last four games. I want the Islanders to prevent the ‘Canes from doing the stupid Storm Surge and send them into the holiday unhappy.
