NHL: Patrick Roy and his Islanders haven't said their last word
There's a new development in the NHL as Patrick Roy and the New York Islanders refuse to be counted out.
Last week, they were 4 points behind the playoffs, and time was running out. As of today, they are just one point behind the Washington Capitals and the last playoff spot.
The end of the season promises to be exciting in the Metropolitan Division. Here's a summary of the standings:
WASHINGTON - 82 POINTS IN 74 GAMES (In playoffs)
DETROIT - 82 POINTS IN 75 GAMES (OUT)
ISLANDERS - 81 POINTS IN 75 GAMES (OUT)
PITTSBURGH - 79 POINTS IN 75 GAMES (OUT)
The Isles' win combined with the Capitals' loss has hurt Washington. However, there's still plenty of hockey left to be played.
Honorable mention to the Pittsburgh Penguins, who were 10 points out of a playoff spot not long ago.
With only 3 points behind and 7 games left to play, they are far from being defeated, especially when a certain Sidney Crosby decides to kick into gear.
