Islanders: Could The Christmas Break Be The Slump Buster?

The long-standing idea in the NHL is that if a team is in the playoffs around American Thanksgiving, they’re putting themselves in a good position for long-term success and, ultimately, clinching a berth in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Last year, 12 of the 16 teams that made it to the dance held their spot from […]
