    Weird Islanders: The Podcast! - Episode 54 - Aatu Räty (with guest Jake from Skates at the Stakes)
    Nov 1 2024
    Joined by frequent prospect watcher Jake from the Skates at the Stakes podcast, we remember Aatu Räty's surprise drafting and splashy debut for the Islanders before he became part of a massive trade. Once expected to be a Top 10 pick, Räty's stock dropped precipitously in his draft year and he fell to the Islanders in the second round, which seemed like a steal at the time. Scoring a goal in his first NHL game only reinforced that idea. But about a month later, he was included in a deal for All Star Bo Horvat that launched a thousand awful hot takes that have only gotten more laughable over time. Jake tells us what drove him to watching prospects, what his thoughts on Räty were at the time of his drafting and his trade away and just how likely it is that the forward finds another new home at some point. Plus, Mike makes a bold predication we'll have to keep an eye on (possibly many years into the future). Thanks again to Jake for coming on and remember to listen to he, AJ and Ryan (now all Weird Islanders: The Podcast! guests) on the Skates at the Stakes podcast. Note: This episode was recorded before the season began. Räty made the Canucks roster out of camp but was assigned to Abbotsford of the AHL on Oct. 16. Subscribe to our Patreon!

  • Islanders Anxiety - Episode 303 - Driven Up a Wall

    Islanders Anxiety - Episode 303 - Driven Up a Wall
    Oct 28 2024
    Mike and Dan take turns ranting about the Islanders' week in which they were shut out (again), blew a bunch of leads (again) and generally did what they always do (again). In the span of five days they managed to get lose in regulation 1-0 after allowing just 11 shots, win in overtime after their best defenseman gave the puck to a player on the other team with a minute to go and then blow a 3-0 lead and lose again to the defending Stanley Cup champs in front of a dwindling amount of people while their media contingent spent more time complaining about not getting to talk to the coach pregame than anything that happen in the game. Meanwhile, fans want to believe there's a rift between coach and GM because it gives them someplace to direct their anger. In other words, it's just a normal week for the NHL's most abnormal team. Thankfully, no one but us is paying attention. In the second half, we discuss the attendance at UBS Arena and finish with our first Master Leaf Theatre of the season, which is just a small appetizer (we hope) of things to come.

  • Islanders Anxiety - Episode 302 - What Emotion to Feel?

    Islanders Anxiety - Episode 302 - What Emotion to Feel?
    Oct 21 2024
    Mike and Dan recap a week of good and bad, as the Islanders stay in the thick of the Metro despite some characteristically bizarre games. They start with Saturday night's home game against Montreal in which the nine-round shootout wasn't even the weirdest part. One person's "great atmosphere" is another's unsustainable, impossible parade of inexcusable bullshit, an Islanders' trademark over the last several seasons. A 1-0 overtime loss to St. Louis on Thursday had its own elements of weirdness, as did a rousing win over a wounded Colorado team on Monday. On the whole, the Islanders are where most people expected them to be. But how they got here is just as insane as it ever was. In the second half, we look forward to the first daunting back-to-back of the season and look in on the Leafs, where the coach wasn't happy at practice, half the fanbase isn't happy with him and the former captain is selling magical jewelry.
