NHL Power Rankings: Chicago Blackhawks Up Amid 5-Game Streak

17. New York Islanders

Previous: No. 10

The Islanders have cooled off recently, but are still a very dangerous team.  The addition of Jordan Eberle has been big for the Isles, but the emergence of Josh Bailey has been huge.  He and John Tavares are top five in scoring right now with the Islanders scoring 118 goals already.  And 20 of those are courtesy of Anders Lee.  I don’t think the Islanders trade their captain this season, especially if they’re playoff contenders.  Who knows, the might go all in.
