The New York Islanders have struggled to hold third period leads for a few years now, but this season, it's gone to a new low. Patrick Roy's club has held a one-goal lead in the third period six times through 19 games this season and they've blown the lead in all six games. We discuss some reasons why the Isles struggle to hold leads and what they can do about it on today's show.
We also dip into the mailbag and discuss the value of the franchise which was just released by CNBC today, and where the Isles rank among the 32 NHL teams, and who else the team may have down in Bridgeport that could help the big club after the surprising play of Isaiah George.
And we preview tonight's game against the Detroit Red Wings which is the final game on this five-game road trip.
All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
