The Islanders' prospect made an impressive spin-o-rama, no-look pass to set up ?a goal in Monday's 6-2 win for the Niagara Ice Dogs. The play occurred in the second period of game three of an OHL playoff series between the Ice Dogs and Ottawa 67's. Ho-Sang did a 360-degree spin and then made the no-look pass to to Dan Maletta, who scored the goal.

However, that's what the Islanders' forward did on Saturday night in the opening period against the Boston Bruins. His combatant, Torey Krug, is not a guy who gets into a fight that often either. In fact it was just his second of the season.
For Strome, it was his first career fight in the NHL.

During a 3-3 game Ho-Sang went end to end and then did the only thing one should do when they score; the shimmy. See for yourself.

10:00pm: John Tavares with just about the most colorful quote you'll ever hear from him: "I don't know if [Okposo] thought David Poile's head was in the net and he was aiming for it..."Poile is the Nashville Predators GM and in charge of assembling Team USA.Lost in the shuffle tonight was the Islanders blowing a two-goal lead at home -- we've heard that one before -- but instead they pushed forward through the third period and into overtime and didn't relent. I'm not sure whether it was a change in strategy or a change in attitude but they certainly played to win down the stretch, especially once Chicago had tied up the game. If you take a look at the fenwick chart, it sort of shows that with the Isles plateauing early in the third then outpacing Chicago throughout the final minutes and overtime.Ryan Strome had his best game yet as an Islander even though he didn't find the scoresheet. He had six shots on goal and linemate Brock Nelson had another three.Evgeni Nabokov is en fuego since returning with injury and helped win the game for the Islanders tonight. Nabokov stopped 37 of 38 even strength shots. With basically the same defense as Poulin/Nilsson had in front of them, with the exception of Brian Strait, it's also some evidence against the Islanders younger netminders.The Islanders are now on a three game win streak and have won five of seven. What a difference from where they were a month ago. Unfortunately for them, the Flyers have won four in a row and the Islanders have made up no ground in the Metro Division. They're still nine points back.Original post: You cannot write a script like this. What a finish.The Islanders played probably their best game of the year tonight, taking the Blackhawks to overtime. In the extra session it was who else but Kyle Okposo scoring the game winner. The Coliseum crowd that braved the snowstorm erupted into chants of "USA, USA!" Okposo then caught up with Peter Ruttgaizer for the post-game interview, saying he had chills.Enough words, just watch:Do we need a full recap for this? We may not need a full recap for this.Tags: 2014 Olympics, Islanders, Videos, Kevin Schultz

Palffy played for the Islanders from 1993 through 1999 and that era in Islanders hockey is sort of left behind the curtain many times; the noteworthy items from that era are almost all negative. That's partially evidenced in our own Retro Video segments?(they've all been from 1993 or earlier and post-2000).
The following video is from the 1996-97 season, the Islanders 25th anniversary season and the year Mike Milbury relieved himself of coaching duties. The Islanders would finish with 70 points that year and 71 the next, the only times during Palffy's tenure the team would crack the 60 point barrier. 70 points wouldn't get them out of the Atlantic Division cellar -- the division was seven teams in that era -- although 71 was good for fourth the next year. But even that was still 12 points removed from the eighth playoff berth. That's as good as it got during that era.
