Islanders are 27-27-26 (regulation tie, not OTL) after regulation this season

[WarriorofTime]

With today's regulation tie to the Rangers, at the end of regulation, the Islanders this season now have 27 wins, 27 losses and have gone to overtime 26 times. I will be personally rooting for them to go into overtime after their next game and stake their claim for being the most perfectly balanced, mid team of all time.

They are actually the hottest team in the league right now I think, 6 wins in a row....7 if they pull this game out.

Shootout Loss. They'll always be the OTL kings for me.

Loser point has been what’s kept us alive this year. Don’t really see us winning a playoff series this year.would have been tough with Dobson and now he’s gone down.

Vs Florida I think they'd have a prayer, even vs NYR but forget it against the Canes or Bruins. The Bruins are like the Purdue of the NHL this year, you do NOT want to play them in R1, even if you're Tampa you're not winning more than 2 games in that series

They stay out of the box and they have a shot with the Rangers. Carolina has always given this team issues, Tampa as well.

TBH they probably should have won vs Carolina in both 2019 and 2023, they were the better team in both those series...yeah, I said that about 2019, even Brind'Amour said he felt Carolina was outplayed in all but 1 game in that series. Sorokin cannot possibly play worse this year vs Carolina you would assume

This team is built to get smoked in round 1…

Varlamov has looked like his old self recently and Sorokin gave them every chance to win today. Both of them seem to be back based on recent play and all the earlier season hiccups are gone (for now). Good issue to have going into the playoffs.
