The 2016–17 New York Islanders season was the 45th season in the franchise's history.^[1] It was their second season in the Barclays Center in the New York City borough of Brooklyn, which they moved into after leaving Nassau Coliseum in Nassau County on Long Island at the conclusion of the 2014–15 season. The Islanders attempted to improve upon their 45–27–10 record from the previous season, in which they defeated the Florida Panthers to win their first playoff series since 1993, but fell to the Tampa Bay Lightning in five games. However, they were unable to accomplish this as they finished the season with a 41–29–12 record, missing the playoffs by one point.
