2 points is still 2 points, but I think we all know that a shootout win is not the same as an overtime win is not the same as a regulation win. Perhaps I’m upset with the system here. There are better ways to allot the points for all of these scenarios. That being said, the Islanders pulled the 2 points out of their hat vs. the Rangers. It felt good watching a goalie play us and have an off game. Too often the team makes goalies look like the second coming of Patrick Roy. Now, having said that, The team plays the Devils today, where Johan “Ken Dryden” Hedberg will be manning the pipes, fresh off a shutout in his last game vs. the Isles. The Devils play a boring game, so hope the Islanders do all of two things, either score or hit or fight. I know that’s three things. They’ll need to do all three to make me happy. They don’t need to be in that order either.
