Islanders' defensive disaster might have wasted final season of John Tavares
"You could say the Islanders are at a bit of a crossroads.
They are wrapping up what has been a mostly disastrous season on the ice, leaving the future of long-time general manager Garth Snow and head coach Doug Weight in jeopardy (their futures with the team should be in jeopardy, anyway).
Even worse, star center and captain John Tavares, the best player the Islanders have had in a generation, is set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer and nobody really knows where he is going to end up.
When it comes to play on the ice, the Islanders have been one of the best offensive teams in the league. They're averaging 3.17 goals per game, on pace to finish this season among the top 10 in the league."
