    Islanders fans have been desiring a ‘true’ first line for some time now. To be more specific, a true ‘first-line winger’ to play with captain John Tavares. Last season, it wasn’t quite good enough for some that Josh Bailey combined with Tavares and rapidly improving Anders Lee to forge a line that combined for 75 goals, 31% of the team’s overall production, and 174 points.

    outgoing coach Jack Capuano last night in the postgame locker room. “There are always differences - different types of people, different personalities. There’s some but there is also a good understanding of Dougie since he’s been here a while”, added Tavares. Thomas Hickey offered some additional color on the coaching change after taking a minute to needle Ryan Strome as a ‘wild man’ for wanting to jump into his second period fight. “We played fast tonight.

    Islanders. Coming off a career season of 56 points, Bailey is off to a hot start in the 2017-2018 season. Through 17 games, he currently has 18 points, which puts him on an 87-point pace for this season. Last season, he was placed on a line with John Tavares and Andres Lee and that line worked wonders.

    Steve Ott is the least of our worries. With a detrimental defense, middle-of-the-pact scoring capabilities and a plethora of under-achieving veterans, a sand-paper grit guy with desire should be a welcome addition to this roster.
