In the case of the Islanders, they help confirm what the eye test tells us: This is a team that struggles to possess the puck.
After Wednesdays 4-2 loss in Winnipeg, the Islanders are spending just 38.4 percent of their time in the offensive zone, compared to 43.4 percent in the defensive zone, at even strength. Both of those numbers are below the 50th percentile league-wide.
That points to a few things poor puck management and decision-making in the defensive zone among them but right now, lets focus on how the Isles are generating offense, which is tilted heavily toward the rush.
