Description

Clark Gillies was a reluctant fighter, but he was so strong and few players could beat him. He faced off against the Bruins Terry O'Reilly several times in the Islanders 1980 playoff series against Boston and we will discuss how those fights helped the Isles gain the confidence they needed to win their first Stanley Cup.
We also discuss the latest on goalie Ilya Sorokin and why he hasn't signed with the Isles yet and look at more possible plans the NHL has to resume play this year and when next season may start.
We also look back at a tough win over the Canadiens on This Date In Islanders History.
All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast.
