Islanders Anxiety - Episode 97 - The Unexcitingness is Exciting

Mike and Dan return for another season of worrying about the Islanders, and they start things off with a bang (or, to be more specific, three bangs on the waiver wire in Josh Ho-Sang, Thomas Hickey and Tanner Fritz).

They also discuss the team’s end-of-camp roster including the addition of young defenseman Noah Dobson. In the second half, they enjoy the many groundbreakings at Belmont Park and look forward to the team’s future home. Listen for special announcements about two new Lighthouse Hockey podcasts coming this season. (Seriously, don’t turn it off. You’re going to want to hear these.)

(And yes, we updated the theme song for this season. If you like it, it’s still the same. If you don’t, well, at least it’s shorter now.)
