The New York Islanders notched a brief three-game winning streak, sparking hope for a playoff run, but faltered badly against the Ottawa Senators, losing 0-2.
The Islanders laid an egg and allowed the Sens' AHL goalie to get a shutout, showing a lack of support for their own goalie, despite past success.
With their record now at 17-19-7, trailing significantly for a playoff position, the Islanders' chances of a successful season are bleak unless drastic changes occur.
Lou Lamoriello's earlier confidence spark faded quickly, leaving questions about the team's intensity and hunger, as highlighted by their lackluster performance against key rivals.
