James and Jon return after an unexpected break to conclude that the New York Islanders are approaching a dead end. It's been difficult to watch this team tank themselves despite being good most of the time, and the next week could spell the end of the season with 25% of it left to go. The guys cover the stadium series game, more letdowns, the trade deadline, a continued lack of focus, and much more. http://tinyurl.com/DKAMAZE - Draft Kings Promo code THPN Gambling problem?

Patrick Roy's first four games are in the books, and the New York Islanders appear to have a bit more jump. They haven't seen the results just yet, but it seems momentum is building. James and Jon discussed the good and bad of Roy's start with the Islanders, the Islanders' Alumni Game, the team's struggling goalies (and how they compare to the rest of the league's top goalies), possible lineup changes, their return following the NHL All Star break, and, of course, the Islanders' stadium...

Lane Lambert isn't going anywhere, but there may not be a team in the NHL that would benefit from a coaching change more than the New York Islanders. Coaching decisions - specifically the continued reliance on the fourth line to bring the team's "identity" to games - have cost the Islanders wins and are beginning to hurt their playoff chances. James and Jon discuss Lambert, the Islanders' results over the last week, how they may navigate Semyon Varlamov's ongoing absence, the NHL All-Star...
