What can we expect the Islanders to bring from a systems standpoint?

We know that the Islanders play a structured game — but what can we expect?

It’s interesting to see how Barry Trotz’s coaching and system have transformed (as good coaches do) from a Capitals team that was able to shut down the middle of the ice against the Penguins to an Islanders team who clog the middle in their own end and force you to the outside.

Seeing this type of game plan I think is a good starting point. Shoot often, shoot from all angles, and get traffic in front of the net.
