have started to find their game over the last couple of weeks, the buzzword in their dressing room has become “structure” — which is to say they’ve tightened their play in the defensive zone and without the puck, limiting shots and high-danger chances better than they have for much of the season.
“I think you’ve seen it at times all season, [but] I think there’s definitely times where we got away from it, too,” Scott Mayfield said following practice Friday. “We know how we need to play, we play a very structured game. So that’s where we’re at our best. You did see it the last couple games, I think we’ve gotten into that structure pretty quick. We’ve kind of played that physical style that we like to play and I think the commitment’s been there.
Scott Mayfield, battling the Wild’s Marcus Foligno for position during a recent game, said the Islanders are now playing a more “structured game.”“Maybe just a little more attention to detail, the little details within the structure,” Noah Dobson told The Post. “I think anytime when you have some key players out with injuries, the guys really step up. … I think guys have really bought into that.
