Islanders News: Let's get Wild; Fungus; Other nature jokes

Good morning, folks. Sorry for the Bits delay - still figuring out this danged contraption.

The day after an Isles win is always brighter - much appreciated on a Monday.

Islanders Readings

• Recaps from a big Isles win: LHH / Newsday / NY Post / NY Daily News / Islanders / NHL.com / NYI Skinny / Hockey Wilderness
• We have another special recap - LHH user from across the pond, English_Isles, recaps Sunday's game against the Wild from afar.
• Losing Pulock after only one period of play sucks, but thankfully steady Nick Leddy only missed 1 game with an infection in his finger. (Fungi?) [Newsday]
• Eric Boulton's rosteriitis seems to have been temporarily cured - after clearing waivers yesterday, he was assigned to Bridgeport.
• ICYMI - This may come as a shock to you, but according to Newsday, the ice at Barclays Center isn't very good. Dom does a wonderful job summing up what this means, as well. [LHH]
