Bridgeport/Islanders Prospect Roundup, Feb. 13: Ty Wishart Recalled
In two games this weekend Bridgeport put up an incredible 81 shots, scoring 10 goals. Defensively they only let up 58 shots and allowed 2 goals. To make things even more impressive, it wasn't all Casey Cizikas and Matt Donovan. Scoring came from all over the place, 4 assists from unheralded Kael...
Bridgeport/Islanders Prospect Roundup, Feb. 5th
Two games this week for Bridgeport, winning a rout on Friday and dropping a close game last night. They are still on a winning streak while away from BP. They are tied for first in their division with Connecticut, but currently hold the tiebreaker with 2 more wins. Despite being first in the...
Tobias Rieder - #20 in The Copper & Blue's Top 25 Under 25
Through the first five days of this edition of The Copper & Blue's Top 25 Under 25 every player profiled has been a defenseman. That pattern ends with the appearance of our first forward, Tobias Rieder at number 20 and proves that this team has more than just "a bunch of middling defensive...
Bridgeport/Islanders Prospect Roundup, Jan. 29th
Well all good things come to an end, as Bridgeport finally dropped a game in the month of January. BP though had two third-period comebacks to force overtime. Winning 2 of 3 games this week, Bridgeport have overtaken their Connecticut rivals for first in the Northeast. Another big week for Casey...
Bridgeport/Islanders Prospect Roundup, Jan. 22
Casey Cizikas continues his strong play for Bridgeport. He has points in 9 of his last 10 games, posting 5 goals and 6 assists.

Bridgeport/Islanders Prospect Roundup, Jan. 15th
Wow, what a difference a month can make. The Sound Tigers went with just 2 wins during the month of December. Now halfway through January they have yet to lose a game, going 6-0. They were helped by Kevin Poulin's return to form, Rhett Rakhshani's return to the lineup, Matt Donovan's sudden...
Bridgeport/Islanders Prospect Roundup, Jan. 8th
Last week we were talking about how Kevin Poulin looked like he was returning to form. This week Poulin flat out took over as he posted three straight shutouts, breaking Rick DiPietro's old Bridgeport record. In other good news for Islanders prospects Johan Sundstrom had a strong showing as Sweden...
Bridgeport/Islanders Prospect Roundup, Jan. 1st
Just as a bit of a note, I am writing this before all of Saturday nights games are concluded (or at least those games that are happening) so feel free to update scores in the comments. JP knows where I live, and if I don't have the prospect report out for him to enjoy with his Sunday morning...
Bridgeport/Islanders Prospect Roundup, Dec 18th
Not a good week for Bridgeport as they dropped all 3 games, letting up a total of 16 goals. They are now on a 5 game losing streak and have just 1 win in their last 9 games. While the defeats over the last 2-3 weeks were one goal affairs, this week it wasn't even close for the Sound Tigers. Anders...
Bridgeport/Islanders Prospect Roundup, Dec 11th
It's a tough stretch of games for Bridgeport, as they dropped both games this week and have lost 5 of their last 6 (although 2 of those were OTLs). The only good news is that both goalies are looking better, and Scott Howes had 2 points in last nights game to continue his point per game average. BP...
