Three games into the season and we have three very different performances from the New York Islanders so far. On opening night, the team was playing at its peak. They fired on all cylinders and shutout the Rangers 4-0.

They followed that up with one of the worst performances of the Barry Trotz era with a 5-0 loss to New York just two days later.
