The Islanders sat around for five days more than once this year. This week, they had two back to backs in 6 days with one of those games being a same day travel from NY to Montreal. I doubt the Leafs or Rangers deal with this b.s.

Bingo!
The Leafs almost never have back to back games and when they go on the road for 2 or 3 games they always seem to get 4 days off afterwards.
I am marking Feb 5th on my calendar. The next time the Leafs and Islanders play. I think we should have a live chat during that game.
I'd be down for this! I can't believe in 2023 the league can't find a schedule that doesn't force certain teams to either travel 100s of miles more than others, or play b2b games 5-10 more times than other teams. Gary Bettman loves a good challenge for the Isles, I'll tell ya!
Great idea!
I will be inviting a couple of my Leafs fan friends to join in the fun. Although they may be apprehensive considering my past history of Leafs related communications.

Great!
Since I had to go searching through text feeds for these. Here is another one you might appreciate that I sent to a couple of my buddies after Florida eliminated the Leafs from the playoffs last season.

How to win friends and influence people in your home town.
Surprisingly they are still my friends. Although one of my buddies did get a bit butt hurt about this last one. I thought it was well deserved since he was texting me in all caps that the Leafs were going to win the cup after they barely defeated the Lightning.
hahahaha
Never noticed this.
