I think that is a big part of it. The Islanders never got their due because of the Oilers and Gretzky hype.
Vid I saw of Gretzky, he said when they walked by the Islanders dressing room, after losing the Stanley Cup to them, he said the Islanders, when they looked in, were exhausted and covered in ice packs and here they were walking out like they could play another game. He said it was then that he realized that if they were going to win Stanley Cups, they had to model their approach like the Islanders did.
Very nice card, Jeff! An 8 is super tough to come by.
