The Islanders made a major move in the middle of a playoff push, parting ways with Patrick Roy after four straight losses and quickly turning to Peter DeBoer on a four-year deal.
We break down whether this was a necessary change or a surprising decision in a season where expectations weren’t sky-high, and what it means for the Islanders’ playoff hopes moving forward.
We also take time to recognize Sidney Crosby, who continues to make history with yet another remarkable milestone, and discuss whether stars like Connor McDavid could someday match that level of consistency.
Plus, several Atlantic Division teams — including the Buffalo Sabres, Tampa Bay Lightning, and Montreal Canadiens — officially clinched playoff spots over the weekend, so we rank their chances and debate which roster looks best built for a deep postseason run as the playoff picture tightens across the league.
