NHL hockey team season
The2010–11 New York Islanders season was the39th season in franchise history.[ 1]
The Islanders posted a regular season record of 30 wins, 39 losses and 13 overtime/shootout losses for 73 points, failing to qualify for theStanley Cup playoffs for the fourth consecutive season.
The Islanders selected forwardNino Niederreiter with the fifth overall pick in the2010 NHL entry draft . Niederreiter became the highest-drafted Swiss-born player in NHL history.[ 2]
Throughout the off-season, the Islanders added defensemenMilan Jurcina ,Mark Eaton andMike Mottau , as well as forwardsZenon Konopka andP. A. Parenteau via free agency.[ 3] [ 4]
In a July 30, 2010, trade with theAnaheim Ducks , the Islanders acquired defensemanJames Wisniewski in exchange for a conditional third-round draft pick in2011 .[ 5]
Most notably, the Islanders lost forwardKyle Okposo and defensemanMark Streit to two accidental and separate shoulder injuries during training camp, both requiring surgeries.[ 4] [ 6] These injuries effectively removed two top-line players for the Islanders, as they were expected to remain out for three and six months, respectively.[ 7]
Meanwhile, arena issues continued to follow the franchise, as team ownerCharles Wang 's proposedLighthouse Project was met with continued obstacles from local authorities.[ 8] [ 9] Both sides remain at odds, and little progress has been made since.
After a ten-game losing streak, the Islanders changed coaches on November 15, 2010, movingScott Gordon into an adviser to the general manager position and naming theBridgeport Sound Tigers ' head coach,Jack Capuano , as their interim head coach.[ 10] The Islanders ended a near franchise-tying record of 15-straight games without a win on November 26, 2010, against theNew Jersey Devils . The Islanders won 2–0 withRick DiPietro securing the shutout. The Islanders ended the season with the worst average attendance in the NHL with an average of 11,059 (68.1% arena capacity).[ 11]
The Islanders finished the regular season having scored the most shorthanded goals, with 15.[ 12]
On March 26, 2011, the Islanders were mathematically eliminated when theBuffalo Sabres defeated the New Jersey Devils. The Islanders last made the playoffs in the2006–07 season .
