The New York Islanders got outstanding goaltending from Semyon Varlamov to blank the Columbus Blue Jackets 2-0. We have our key takeaways from the game and our hero and goat of the game. Plus, which lines are clicking and which lines need to be tweaked.
We also discuss the hot starts of Kyle Palmieri and Noah Dobson and what the Isles need to clean up to win consistently.
Plus we preview tonight’s important home game against Alex DeBrincat and the Detroit Red Wings, a team the Isles will likely battle for one of the final playoff spots in the Eastern Conference this year.
All this and more on today’s Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.

A beautiful performance from #40!
Solid game from Varly,good to see.
LGI!
Once again isle goaltending shines. Isles can shut down the weak scoring teams like az. and bj's when one two goals will do. Still 25th in gf right around 2.5 per isle norm aint gonna cut it long term. Neither will 23rd ranked pp. Same broken record-isles go as far as sorokin/goaltending takes them. No other difference makers. Better be ready for wings and cat and det. pp next. And tweak away lines all you want. When 8 is tied for pt. lead and when 15, 53 are outscoring lee and a few others like 26 you have problems. As is 3 pp goals with 0 sh goals. Put 18, 10 to good use on sh duty. Predictable win once again. Isles are a pt. out of playoffs with fla./buff. (who shut out avs) yet to take off and pens, caps (who beat lowly sj) old hot garbage right now. Take note louzer.
Well Islanders got a break as Pelech Stole what seemed like a Clear Goal by CBJ or I thought it was over the Line anyways. Martin should have got an Assist on the Martin Goal as it was passed right to the dude Cizikas or so :). Varly has to play at least 30 games but has Quality Starts so far which helps. Dobson I think will lead the team in Points. I'm still not big on any of the Lines Really. I'm not sure how much Lee has left in the tank or if can still get 28 Goals 50 Points. Metro is going to be tough but I don't think Penguins will make it with Jarry. I was not big on that contract nor Dubas or what is his name from Toronto. I had kinda liked Hextall but team kinda flopped as those trades didn't help enough. De Smith I think is even a better option in Net who Vancouver got for not a lot. Isles really need another 30 or 40 Goal Scorer I think heh :).
