The 2005–06 New York Islanders season was the 34th season in the franchise's history. On March 14, 2006, the Islanders trailed the Montreal Canadiens by five points for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, but won only five of their final 18 games to finish 12th in the East. Their 12th place finish meant that, for the first time since the 2000–01 season, the team would not qualify for the playoffs.
Offseason
[edit]Forward Alexei Yashin was named team captain, replacing the traded Michael Peca.[2]
Regular season
[edit]After having lost eight of their previous nine games, the Islanders fired head coach Steve Stirling on January 12 and replaced him on an interim basis with assistant coach Brad Shaw.[3] It was also announced that general manager Mike Milbury would step away from that position once a successor was hired.[3]
