In beating the Blue Jackets and Kings, the latter of whom was on a record-setting 11-game road winning streak, the Islanders reversed their trend of blowing leads late, taking over each game in the third period. The wins also revived the fortunes of Anders Lee, JG Pageau and Sam Bolduc, all of whom had seen their share of criticisms this season.
In the second half, they look at a tough back-to-back against the Bruins and Canadiens (the latter in Montreal) and the return of Ross Johnston as an Anaheim Duck. But first they leap head first into Leafs Week with an epic double episode of Master Leaf Theatre and a look at how the game will be covered, and how that coverage has affected their ability to enjoy the sport.
