Episode Notes

The New York Islanders celebrate a decade of defining moments—was winning the draft lottery and selecting Matthew Schaefer the turning point for a new era? Gil Martin spotlights Schaefer's Calder Trophy-winning debut, Ilya Sorokin’s franchise-saving goaltending, and the steady leadership of Anders Lee. Unforgettable playoff series wins, including John Tavares’ double-overtime heroics and back-to-back runs to the Eastern Conference Final, anchor the countdown of the Islanders’ top moments over the last ten years.

Who were the Islanders’ top five players of the decade? Gil Martin delivers a detailed breakdown, debating the lasting impact of Brock Nelson, Josh Bailey, and Mathew Barzal. The episode also reflects on pivotal decisions like hiring Barry Trotz and Lou Lamoriello’s influence, bringing fresh insight for diehard Isles fans. Locked On Islanders emerges as more than a show—it’s a passionate community marking a milestone in team and podcast history.

All this and more on today's special 10th Anniversary episode of the Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
