New York Islanders face a major setback after a crushing 7-2 loss to the Utah Mammoth, compounded by Bo Horvat’s alarming lower body injury just hours after his Team Canada Olympic selection. With Horvat potentially sidelined and Ilya Sorokin still unavailable, can the Islanders’ struggling offense find answers in time for a critical stretch of the season?
Gil Martin dissects the Islanders’ recent scoring woes, the ripple effect of Horvat’s absence, and Patrick Roy’s latest lineup adjustments. Key discussions include the team’s lack of scoring depth, the possibility of pursuing Steven Stamkos, and the urgency for players like Maxim Tsyplakov and Anthony Duclair to step up. Analysis extends to the upcoming showdown against John Tavares and the Toronto Maple Leafs, special teams issues, and an in-depth spotlight on Mike York for the Islanders’ birthday of the day. Can the Islanders regroup and reignite their playoff hopes?
All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
