With the team riding a 17-game points streak, Mike and Dan talk about the Islanders' brave new universe, Trotzgiving and the team's social media evolution with guest Michael Schuerlein. One of the original Isles Blog Boxers, Mike walks them through how he went from writing for an automotive magazine to covering drafts, games and other events and forging long-lasting relationships with the franchise and media. They also talk about which Islanders are the smartest and the most snake-bitten, and how one more NHL team has been added to the growing list of groups re-thinking their tactics to better emulate the Isles’ success. Includes Islanders-branded energy drinks, “happy violence” and crying Brian Burke. Sponsored by VintageIceHockey.com
