Nothing will be easy for the Islanders from here on out

TORONTO — It’s been over three months since the Islanders were out of a playoff spot, allowing for the illusion of security. This Islanders team is, plainly, much better than the last two that made the playoffs and which took until Games 81 and 82 to secure passage into the tournament, respectively, before bowing out quietly in the first round. Nevertheless, it may take this year’s outfit just as much time to clinch a spot.
