Something Has Clicked With The Islanders

from Dan Martin of the NY Post,

Injuries limited Andy Sutton to just 23 games last season, and even though this year is only 14 games old, the defenseman already sees a difference in this group of Islanders.

“Something happened partway through this season,” Sutton said after practice yesterday in Syosset. “We figured out our identity, and it’s showing in the way we’re playing.”

And the Isles are getting results, bringing a four-game winning streak into Buffalo tonight.

“We’re making simple, hard, effective plays and being tenacious,” Sutton said. “We’ve been pretty disciplined. I think is a young team that’s getting smarter.”

It’s also a team that might start getting recognition soon.
