For the sixth time in franchise history, the Islanders tied their longest homestand (of seven games) – beginning on February 24 and lasting through March 9 – in which they earned three wins during that span.[3]

The Islanders qualified for the Stanley Cup playoffs for the first time since the 2006–07 NHL season.

Off-season

Regular season

edit

On March 22, 2013, the Islanders were 12th in the Eastern Conference and a playoff spot seemed unlikely. The team would then earn points in 14 of 15 games, including 11 consecutive games with at least a point to officially clinch a playoff berth on April 23.[4][5]

The Islanders tied the Minnesota Wild for the fewest shorthanded goals allowed, with 0.[6]
