S1 E4 - Playoff Hopes Slipping with Current Slide, Interview with Islanders Organist Paul Cartier
Ray and Steve paint a vivid picture of the Islanders' current struggles and future uncertainties. The team's post-deadline record, marred by a five-game losing streak, has cast a shadow over their playoff hopes. While some players, like Pierre Engvall, have stepped up with notable performances, others have faced criticism for their lack of impact, such as Anthony Duclair. The offseason should bring significant changes, but with GM Lou Lamoriello silent about a potential overhaul to infuse youth and address the team's shortcomings, will we be subject to yet another boring and dismal Islanders season next year?
Adding a nostalgic touch, their interview with Paul Cartier, the Islanders' legendary organist, highlights his enduring contribution to the team's atmosphere over decades. Cartier's journey from a young fan to a beloved fixture at Islanders games is a testament to his passion and dedication.
