Our new interactive feature continues as we ask fans everywhere in Islanders Country to send us their best essays. The challenge is to come up with your best answer, as the title says, in 50 words or less.

This week's "assignment:"
Who is your favorite CURRENT Islander, and why?

Especially coming off Saturday's rousing win, we're expecting plenty of raves for the relentless Jason Blake. But we're sure many of you out there love so many of the Islanders. So tell us who, and more importantly, tell us why.

 Just do it in 50 WORDS OR LESS and send it here.

Your deadline is Friday, December 2 at 10:00 am. Thanks, and good luck!
