IBO Boxing Honesty and Integrity
It’s been a nice two days off for the Islanders, but it was time to get back to work. After winning probably the biggest game of the season Saturday night down in Raleigh, they were back in action to finish off a home and home series with those same Carolina Hurricanes. The blue and orange needed to get two points in any shape or form against this non-playoff team, and they did. The Isles gutted out a 2-1 shootout win, and two massive points in the process. They have now won two in a row. The best hits from social media can be found here after tonight’s victory.

Feels like I've been waiting all season for the #isles to kick it into the next gear. Time to step it up a notch and get the job done!

#isles reliance on setting up shots andbe strategic on the PP is not exactlyworking

Alright huge pp here. Let's nullify the pp and not put out our big gun…..

Either this ends in a Clutterbuck OT winner or a Clutterbuck OT winner off a defender’s face.

The #Isles need to unleash their inner #USMNT and bust open a game that need to & should win.
— Kevin Maher (@KMaherNews12) March 30, 2016
It's pretty clear Capuano only trusts 6 forwards right now. #isles
— Islanders Insight (@IslesInsight) March 30, 2016
The inability to clear the zone is scary. #isles
— Michael Schuerlein (@islesblogger) March 30, 2016
Huge point. Now let's get two. #isles

Going into the shootout the #Isles have reached 90 pts in consecutive seasons for the 1st time since 82-83 & 83-84 is that right @ehornick
— Shane Blackburn (@DumpandChase80) March 30, 2016
The ice is so bad, I wouldn't be surprised with 117-round shootout. Just sayin'. #Isles
