Soon-to-be free agent John Tavares might be seriously reconsidering staying with the New York Islanders past this season, as his Isles have somehow managed to lose 15 of their last 18 games.

With New York's loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Friday night, the club now has 21 losses in 28 games since the All-Star break.

The horrendous stretch has seen New York fall completely out of the Eastern Conference playoff picture and into draft lottery contention, currently sitting dead last in the Metropolitan Division with a disappointing 74 points.

Management should have a very interesting time trying to convince Johnny T to stick around now that the team has completely nosedived in the second half of the season.
