One Game, One Wish – Islanders Looking to be the Heroes With Just 3 Games Left

Puck drops at 2 PM against the Saint John Sea Dogs, but the real stars of the day will be the five incredible Make-A-Wish Ambassadors, each of whom has faced extraordinary challenges with the heart of a true superhero.

Islanders Pushing for Playoff Positioning
With just three games remaining, the Islanders are locked in a battle to improve their playoff standing. After a hard-fought comeback effort that fell short in Bathurst on Friday night, the Isles are now five points behind the Titan, making these final games absolutely crucial.
Friday’s Recap:
Despite falling behind 4-0, the Islanders nearly pulled off an incredible comeback, with Ethan Montroy leading the charge with two goals. The game ended 5-4, but Charlottetown proved they won’t go down without a fight.
A Must-Win Game Against Saint John
The Sea Dogs are also fighting for their playoff lives, sitting at the bottom of the Maritime Division alongside Halifax. They’ll be desperate for points, but the Islanders have their sights set on closing the gap on Bathurst before their final home game of the season next week.
Meanwhile, Bathurst has a tough road ahead, facing Moncton—Canada’s #1-ranked team—twice in their final three games. If the Isles take care of business, they have a real shot at leapfrogging the Titan before the postseason begins.
The Islanders are hopeful that Captain Marcus Kearsey will return to the lineup before the end of the regular season. A fully healthy squad would be a huge boost as the team heads into the playoffs.
As Isles’ Defenseman Jonathan Lanza put it:
“No matter who we get in the playoffs, we’re coming for ’em.”
