No other forward for the New York Islanders has been criticized more than Josh Bailey, but he’s been proving his haters wrong this year. I’m not a Josh Bailey apologist, he’s not my favorite player, but from an honest assessment of the 2016 season he’s been the most consistent New York Islanders forward.

EAST MEADOW, N.Y. – Josh Bailey has been called many things during his time with the New York Islanders, but no can say he isn’t humble.

 It’s that time of year boys and girls. It’s when some teams begin to throw in the towel and prepare for next season. It’s also a time when teams will load up on rental players in the hopes of a long Stanley Cup run. Welcome to the trade deadline window folks. Before we get into who’s in/out and which players may go, let’s simplify the standings a bit a see who else is still in the playoff race. So not counting tonight’s games, I took the point pace standings after the Islanders played their 51st game and these were the results in a nutshell. In the playoffs for the East in order: Washington (121), Columbus (114), Pittsburgh (114), Rangers (106) Montreal (103) Ottawa (98) From here on out, unless there is a plague, you can pretty much pencil those teams in and consider them buyers.
