  • Weird Islanders: The Podcast! - Episode 61 - Weird Islanders Quarter Century Team
    Feb 7 2025
    Mike and Dan make their picks to each create a team of Weird Islanders from the past 25 years. It's been quite a journey for the team since 2000, from highs and lows to mercenaries and stalwarts to kids and veterans and three home arenas. And through all of it there were weird players who only wore the blue-and-orange for a short time. So we each put together a starting six based on gut feelings, good memories and attempted representation of where the Islanders were as a franchise at the time. Some we've talked about before and some are new but all of them made an impression despite quick exits. From big playoff goals to unmet expectations to truly anonymous players to first round picks to bad facial hair, we cover a lot of ground to build the best rosters we can from the Weirdest Islanders we could find. And we want to hear from you! Who do you think built the better team? We didn't make it easy on ourselves (because we almost never do and it's the Islander way). Subscribe to our Patreon!

  • Islanders Anxiety - Episode 319 - Clash of the Titans
    Feb 4 2025
    Mike and Dan take stock and take cover as the Islanders rack up both wins and casualties in a battle against the Hockey Gods. By stretching their winning streak to a "disastrous" seven games - before a gallant, teasing loss to the Stanley Cup champion Panthers - the Islanders reinserted themselves in the Eastern Conference playoff race. That's the good news. The bad news is that they continue to lose bodies, the latest being Mat Barzal and Scott Mayfield, and their surprisingly effective junkyard blueline might not be able to withstand much more punishment. Their three tough upcoming games will go a long way towards determining how the rest of the season goes, but as of right now, demigod Lou Lamoriello is trying to fight off the deities playing games with his people. In the second half, we go deep into another Master Pens Theater and learn why you cannot make Sidney Crosby trade proposals or question Kyle Dubas's moves, even the bad ones. We also get a look at the JT Miller trade from the Vancouver side and what it has to do with Bo Horvat.

  • Islanders Anxiety - Episode 318 - The Invading Ottoman Empire
    Jan 28 2025
    With yet another defenseman (and a goalie) landing on IR, Lou Lamoriello was forced to make another acquisition to keep the Islanders afloat and we are forced to talk about both. In an addendum to Monday's episode, we discuss the signing of Tony DeAngelo and our feelings about bringing the quarrelsome defenseman into the Islanders' fold. But we also discuss the trade for another defenseman, Scott Perunovich, who was once a prized prospect for both the Blues and a certain notable hockey podcast. A former Hobey Baker winner, Perunovich battled injuries and lost roster spots in his time in St. Louis, and might be a nice get for the Islanders, provided he can avoid the calamity that has chased their blueline around all season. Along the way we touch on off-beat goalie options, learn more about Hibbing, Minnesota and the Perunovich tradition of fighting back hordes and tease an upcoming new edition of Master Pens Theater.
