There’s a lot of negativity swirling around the New York Islanders after this game. Of course, the Islanders didn’t look particularly good outside of goalie Semyon Varlamov, but the sky is not falling.
Consider a few things here. The Islanders are still 5-1-0 against the Boston Bruins. The Islanders are still 5-2-0 in the month of April.
