Dee Karl: The Maturation of Josh Bailey
I missed seeing Josh Bailey on breakup day at the NY Islanders. But my buddy Christian Arnold was kind enough to sneak in two questions for me. You can hear them at about the 3:14 mark of the video.
But let's talk about Josh. In 2008 the Coliseum was packed for the NHL Draft party. The media was stationed where the penalty boxes are, on the floor. When Garth Snow started...
Dee Karl: Isles vs Jets: Clinch or Not?
Islanders, who have been excellent on the road, have a chance to cliinch today with a win over the jets.
A 2 - 1 start is not a bad thing. Josh Bailey continues to improve this season as he scores the Isles second goal. Another assist from Okposo proving again he's a great set-up man. Nielsen is just terrific as usual.

The Bruins could have clinched a playoff spot against the Islanders with a win or overtime loss Thursday night. Josh Bailey had other ideas.
The New York center scored two goals to lead the Isles to a 2-1 victory over the punchless Bruins, who looked gassed on the tail end of their final back-to-back of the year. Still, it was an important win for New York not only because they are...
Dee Karl: It's Hockey (& Shopping) Time On Long Island
Itâs pouring rain on Long Island, but it could be worse. Itâs just funny that it always seems to rain on the Islandersâ parade. A free scrimmage between Bridgeport Sound Tigers and the Islanders tonight at 7 pm and we get wet, slick roads. Thanks Mother Nature.

Islanders' Bailey is ready to take a step forward
There are teams across the NHL ready to spend money on high-profile free agents such as longtime Phoenix Coyotes captain Shane Doan, or to trade away a slew of prospects for a star scorer such as the Columbus Blue Jackets' Rick Nash.
