Islanders Anxiety - A Very Specific Type of Torture Islanders Anxiety: A New York Islanders podcast
-
- Hockey
Mike and Dan ramble and rant about a range of NHL topics, from strange playoff bedfellows to prospect coverage to old guy veneration. With the Islanders' offseason in a holding pattern, the hosts are forced to face a corporate-backed rival fanbase that only emerges when certain special conditions are met, and to rely on previous enemy teams to come through for them. Making matters worse is that the solid ice the Islanders once skated on has cracked and left everyone feeling uneasy. In the second half, they discuss a few Islanders players getting a chance at the World Hockey Championships and how they might impact next season, either on the roster or as trade fodder. They also look at how their shallow prospect pool is all but ignored and how not all beloved veteran bargain free agents are created equal. Remember: some articles aren't worth getting mad about.
*-note that this episode was recorded prior to Game 7 between the Rangers and Hurricanes.
