No. 15: New York Islanders

Previous: No. 16

Record: 30-23-11 (71 points)

The Islanders have lost two games in a row after defeating the Dallas Stars 5-4 last Thursday. But they still managed to surpass Toronto in the standings, having gained a point when they went to overtime against Chicago.  As of right now, the Islanders hold the second wild card spot in the East, but they have about four other teams breathing down their necks. John Tavares and company need to right the ship real quick, or they won’t make the playoffs.
