Point Season: Games and Wild-Card Spot

point season: Despite some brief stretches of good play, they sit last in the Eastern Conference at 17-17-8 and the inconsistency cost coach Jack Capuano his job on Tuesday, according to Hamilton Spectator. We have 40 games left, Weight said Wednesday after the Islanders' first practice since the coaching change. Coming off their second straight 100-point season and the franchise's first playoff series win in 23 years, the Islanders stumbled from the start of this season. We believe in what we can do on the ice. The Islanders are just eight points out of the second wild-card spot in the East, and they have played fewer games than almost every team ahead of them. It's not like there's just 20 games left and we have to win 19 of them. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
