The Philadelphia Flyers were the top seed in the Eastern Conference and the New York Islanders were the sixth, but you wouldn’t know it from watching Game 7 last Saturday night.

Every single year, Canadian fans are force-fed a nonsense narrative that we must back our last remaining city battling through the postseason. That’s beyond illogical, for a number of reasons.

While the New York Rangers and their fans are celebrating winning the draft lottery, the New York Islanders are preparing for the beginning of their Stanley Cup Playoff run against the Washington Capitals.

Potential options for the Islanders to clear up salary cap space Arthur Staple of The Athletic: (mailbag) New York Islanders defenseman Sebastian Aho could start next season back in Sweden. It’s possible he could sign there long-term. It is hard to see how he cracks the Islanders roster. He hasn’t really gotten a shot in
Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet: Believe that the Arizona Coyotes’ initial offer to pending UFA Taylor Hall was a five-year deal with a $7.25 million AAV. That won’t be their final offer.
