The New York Islanders defeated the Montreal Canadiens 4-3 Saturday night in a nine-round shootout thriller. It was a back-and-forth battle that could have gone either way, but the Islanders came out on top thanks to Noah Dobson’s goal and Logan Mailloux’s missed shootout attempt in Round 9.

Just days before the New York Islanders’ 2024-25 regular season begins, Noah Dobson is still without a long-term deal. He will be a restricted free agent (RFA) after the season. Ideally, Islanders would have signed their star defenseman to an extension, one with eight seasons attached to it in the $7 million average annual value
It’s unlikely that the New York Islanders will win the Stanley Cup this season. They are a middling team, and their odds reflect that – at +4000 or +5000, according to most oddsmakers, they are in the same group as the Detroit Red Wings, Ottawa Senators, and Pittsburgh Penguins.

The Adam Pelech and Ryan Pulock duo has been a staple of the defense for the New York Islanders. The top pair has shut down the best offenses in the league and is an integral part of the team’s success, especially on the defensive end of the ice. Ryan Pulock, New York Islanders (Jess Starr/The
Before every season, it’s always fun to make predictions which in all likelihood, will be inaccurate. One year ago, of the five bold New York Islanders predictions that were made, only two were close and the others weren’t even in the ballpark (Anthony Beauvillier playing on the top line aged poorly). The Islanders head into
Every player comes into a season with the expectation that they are at the start of a career year, but few realize that hope. Last season, many of the teams in the ultra-competitive Metropolitan Division succeeded or failed based on the ability of players like Jack Hughes, Alexis Lafreniere, and Martin Necas to have a
The New York Islanders had a bittersweet start to their five-game road trip. They lost 4-3 to the Boston Bruins, the best team in the Eastern Conference, but managed to earn a point by forcing the game into overtime and ultimately losing in the shootout. The Islanders were looking to win the first game of
In recent years, players and coaches from the New York Islanders have won a couple of the NHL’s major individual awards at the end of the season. Mathew Barzal’s Calder Trophy for rookie of the year in 2017-18 was the first of the major awards (Calder, Hart, Adams, Norris, Vezina, and Selke) the Islanders had
