Islanders optimistic after turnaround despite playoff exit | |
Despite getting swept in the Eastern Conference semifinals, the New York Islanders know they made big strides in their turnaround first season under president and general manager Lou Lamoriello and coach Barry Trotz. Predicted by many experts to miss the playoffs for the ninth time in 12 seasons, the Islanders led the Metropolitan Division for a big chuck of the middle of the season before finishing second at 48-27-7. They followed up their surprising season with a four-game sweep of Pittsburgh in the first round of the playoffs when everything seemed to be going their way. After waiting 10 days to start the next round, nothing went New York's way as the Islanders couldn't rediscover their scoring touch and were swept by Carolina. MORE | |
