The New York Islanders got a strong performance from Ilya Sorokin and two goals from Brock Nelson to earn a point in a 3-2 shootout loss to the Rangers Saturday afternoon. We have our hero and goat of the game plus we discuss the strong play of Hudson Fasching, the absence of Noah |Dobson and the problems on special teams.
We also break down the team’s playoff clinching possibilities tonight. What will it take for the Isles to clinch a berth in the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs?
And we preview tonight’s critical game against the New Jersey Devils.
All this and more on today’s Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.

Shitshow sp. teams again giving up sh goal. The bettman loser point almost put isles in playoffs. 91 pts. should do it. The only way isles can't make playoffs would be to lose last two in reg. and have caps win both their remaining games and pass isles for third. Pens can still tie isles with 2 wins 2 isle reg..losses. Or if two teams pass isles with wins 2 isles reg. losses and wings sweep 2 games with habs wings could knock isles out and get last w c spot. Wings can only get w c 2. Any failure to get a pt. and wings are done. Flyers can only be w c 2 as well with 1 game left and can't catch isles for third. Isles clinched in game 81 last season. They could do that this season with w or pt. vs. nj. Pens play preds before finishing at isles who play at nj next. Caps play b's at home then finish at flyers. One will be eliminated with loss unless caps eliminate flyers by beating b's. Or cap loss means caps can't finish third. Caps, flyers, wings all finish tuesday before isle, pen game. So that game may mean nothing. I hope i am right with this.
And canes (at bj's) beat hawks and need win and rag loss (vs. sens) to pass rags and win division. So 3 probably gets canes in first round.
Hard to believe this team will probably make the playoffs….thank goodness for goaltending
BTW playing NJ and Pitt is no guarantee of points
This team seriously needs to hire a pp coach… John Maclean is not capable… I can't believe how bad this team is on the pp… to much standing around.. not enough movement.. for Pete's sake they're better 5 on 5..
They have to win tonight you don’t want it coming down to that last game to get in
