The New York Islanders Scored an Important Win Over Montreal But May Have Suffered a Key Injury

Locked On Islanders - Daily Podcast On The New York Islanders

The New York Islanders scored a spirited 3-2 OT win over the Montreal Canadiens Thursday but may have lost an important player to injury during the game. Kyle Palmieri continued his strong play by scoring the game winner in OT and Semyon Varlamov played well again in goal. We break down our key takeaways plus our hero and goat of the game.

Plus we answer your mailbag questions on Ilya Sorkin and Bo Horvat and we preview Saturday's rematch with the New York Rangers.

All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.

SiriusXM - Our current partnership includes promoting to the radio broadcast of the team you cover on SiriusXM the day of a game. In return your podcast promo will run during the SiriusXM broadcast. Whenever your team is playing you should mention the following two to three times a show - The ​_____ play the ​___ tonight at 7 Pacific. [AD lib a line about the game] Catch every pitch of the ​______ hometown broadcast with SiriusXM on the S-X-M App – Search “_________"
Example: The Giants play the Reds tonight at 7 Pacific. [AD lib a line about the game] Catch every pitch of the Giants hometown broadcast with SiriusXM on the S-X-M App – Search “Giants”
Every Dayers -We want to make The Every Dayer a cool thing to be. The truest fan is the Every Dayer. You reward your Every Dayers. An example “The Every Dayer might recall the show last week on Dak Prescott’s down field accuracy ……” “Every Dayers might have heard this before and I am going to say it again, if the Angels can’t win with Mike Trout …..” Create your Every Dayers community by referencing back to previous episodes, teasing ahead to future episodes, and getting engagement on social media and YouTube.

Horizontal Teasing - Tease and push what you will be doing tomorrow or later in the week on the show. When you come out of a commercial, “Thanks for making Locked On Giants your first listen and tomorrow we will be looking at the bullpen to see if we can find a solution to the issues.” “Thanks for making Locked on Flames your first listen and remember Thursday is always Throwback Thursday on the show this week we look back at ....”

First Listen - Start your podcast every day thanking your listeners for making you their first listen. The primary goal is to "train" your listener to make Locked On the first listen of their day and therefore increase the amount of episodes they listen to in a week.
