Episode Notes

New York Islanders fans face an offseason dilemma: with the Islanders missing the Stanley Cup Playoffs, which team deserves your support? Gil Martin breaks down rooting options, spotlighting former Islanders like Brock Nelson and Devon Toews with the Colorado Avalanche, Ross Johnston on the Anaheim Ducks, Parker Wotherspoon’s surprising impact for the Pittsburgh Penguins, and Noah Dobson’s post-injury outlook with the Montreal Canadiens. Which storyline are fans most likely to follow as playoff drama unfolds?

Plus, the Bridgeport Islanders fight for survival in the AHL playoffs as their franchise faces extinction and next year's relocation to Hamilton—will they be rebranded as the Havoc, Hammers, or Mustangs? Gil Martin also delivers a player-by-player report card for JG Pageau, explores his declining offensive role, and celebrates Wayne Merrick’s legacy as an underrated third-line center on every Islanders Stanley Cup roster. Dive into playoff predictions and the future of Islanders hockey.

All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
