Islanders vs. Flyers Gameday: Technically alive but spiritually broken
Look out, Gatcomb’s coming.The Islanders are in Philadelphia Saturday afternoon because the schedule says they must be, but we’ll see who shows up after an embarrassing 9-2 loss on home ice to the other New York team.
Even the official team preview notes the Isles are only “technically” still alive in their extinguished playoff chase, since Montreal was unable to clinch against Ottawa last night.
One bright note for today is we see ol’ Isles assistant and interim Brad Shaw behind the bench. Happy for him, maybe they remove the interim tag and he gets a run with that squad?
First Islanders Goal picks go here.
