Time to buy into the Islanders?
The Penguins (25-15-6, 56 pts) on Tuesday night dropped to the final wildcard spot in the Eastern Conference. The Islanders
(26-15-4, 56 pts) 8-2-0 in their last 10 games, continue to hang around in the Metropolitan Division and is it finally time to start buying into the Islanders as having sustainability in race for a top-3 spot in the Metro?

Kris Letang among few bright spots in loss
Few Penguins showed up in a 5-2 loss to the San Jose Sharks. Among those who did come to play was Kris Letang, Sidney Crosby and not much more beyond those two.
Letang scored a dazzling backhand goal in the first period, walking a flat-footed Erik Karlsson and beating Martin Jones top shelf for his 11th of the season and 39th point.
