The Rangers haven't won against the Islanders in two years. Let that sink in. The Rangers haven't defeated the Islanders at the Barclays Center ever either. The Rangers have lost their last eight games against the Islanders, and 12 of their last 13. That all came into jeopardy when the Isles hosted the Rangers in …

After an up-and-down start to the season, the Islanders can move into first place in the Metropolitan Division with a win against the Pittsburgh Penguins tonight.

February 28th. Nassau Coliseum. John Tavares makes his return. Yesterday, the Islanders made headlines by moving their matchup against the Toronto Maple Leafs from Barclays Center to the Coliseum.

The Islanders never had the largest fanbase. Nevertheless, at least from what I've seen throughout the years I've supported this team, we tend to be a very passionate one. Sometimes, that passion leads us to say things that may be overly drastic and uncalled for. The late Charles Wang owned the Islanders during some of …
