Islanders Forecheck 12: Jamie Rivers with Tarasenko Talk, Blues-Isles Preview, and His Tale of an NYI Game after a Long Night of Coach-Endorsed Drinking

After Pat and Chris break down the latest Islanders loss and Lou Lamoriello’s comments about roster decisions before the trade deadline, ex-NYI dman and current Blues analyst Jamie Rivers joins the show. Jamie previews Saturday’s tilt at UBS against St. Louis, talks about Vladimir Tarasenko and Pavel Buchnevich, and shares memories of his time with the Islanders, including a classic about a team-endorsed beer-drinking session late in the evening before a game in Toronto.
