Islanders Esoteric #17-08 or #2814

Check this out: Joey becomes the 22nd winningest goalie in franchise history with his 7th win tonight. This ties him with two others: Felix Potvin and...

Wait for it....

...Roberto Luongo.

Joey is also the 24th goalie to man the net for 1,000 plus minutes.

Anyone look at the Isles upcoming schedule? They dont play until Fridy and then they go on a 6 game in 9 night tear through the Thanksgiving holiday.

Before you know it we might be fighting for a playoff position. How are we in the middle of a 3-game win streak. But we still have our annual 10 game losing streak to look forward to in December/January time frame.

Not a lot of movement on the esoteric so I had to dig to pull some stats out.

In Franchise game #2,814 we get franchise win #1,230.

Face-offs we are still doing poorly: Nielsen - 8/15; Park - 4/14; Weight 6/17

High Icetime: Streit 26:04 & Sutton 25:40
Low Icetime: Jackman 10:25 & Skinner 10:53
