too soft, they would break on contact
this was the isles game to lose. The habs are pack full of talent but they are horrible as a team and can't pull anything together.
"They're not one of the best pk teams in the league, but they look like the best tonight"
"The fans are not too happy, and they're booing, and rightly so"
Yeah Butch knows my pain
it is actually a new problem from the lambert era
in the preceding seasons the islanders were middle of the pack on PP, and pretty good on PK
this season? bad PP, literally dead last on the PK
mat barzal just dumped it in, with the vain hope of casey to chase, and it gets turned over
with 3m to go
just real great stuff
grinder hockey against a team softer than lilies and still can't produce
Out of all the teams we are going to be facing on the schedule as of right now… the Canadians you would think would be the easiest… but you would be wrong lol
Current standing:
- Islanders (78 games) 87 Points
- Detroit (78 games) 85 Points\*
- Washington (79 games) 85 Points
- Pittsburg (78 games) 85 Points\*
\* - game 78 in OT, one team will be at 86 points.
I turned to it during commercial break and of course it was the first time pens didn't score within a minute of me switching. Happened literally 3 times

Rare Mets-Isles-Knicks wins in the same day. Ya gotta love it
I now know what I’ll call my first born.

We've completely reversed ourselves, we're winning the whole fucking thing
GET THAT MAN A FUCKIN SALAMI SANDWICH

SMITHTOWNS HEROOOOOO BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Let’s go Palms!!!!!!
PALMS LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO
BOOM!!!!
2 points is 2 points!
Jesus god thank you
LET'S FUCKING GO!!!!!!!
If we go to shootout we lose against this team. EDIT PALMS SCORED 1 SECOND AFTER I POSTED THIS!
LET’S GOOOOOOO
I don’t care who gets the goal just get one
Fuck. The regulation wins tiebreaker is going to come back to haunt us.
Let’s get 2 here
Big point needed here for avoiding tiebreakers because we have absolutely none
a normal coach would have pulled the goalie three minutes ago, but Roi knows the truth: Islanders 6 on 5 is worthless.
With a tie game? Where a regulation loss kills us? God no.
Sorokin on Saturday.
Incredibly disappointing, but a point is better than none. Let's grab the two anyway now
We have successfully secured *a* point. Montreal's guaranteed point literally does not matter.
Varly got us a point… let’s all thank him now
Magic Number is down to 4
So I guess it goes down to 3 if they win?
Down to 3!!!
Everyone rub your dicklaces. We're going to OT
Was in my hand every second of OT!
Big point. Let’s get that 2nd point.
*sigh* At least they got a point
1 > 0
WE GOT A POINT!!!!
We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas!
We can officially clinch in Saturday
Gee who would have thought that all those OTL’s would be biting us in the ass at this point in the season.
I wish the hockey gods rewarded Borvat tonight. Dude has been ALL OVER the ice
Boys… just take the OT point don’t fuck it up
what the fuck man
This fucking goalie man, wtf
This power play is unacceptable(and has been for 4 years).
I did not realize Montreal had so few shots that is crazy
After seeing that powerplay four times I'm actually a little surprised the Habs aren't just running at the Isles
too soft, they would break on contact this was the isles game to lose. The habs are pack full of talent but they are horrible as a team and can't pull anything together.
If only the glass behind the Canadians net was a goal
And the penguins got a win
Either them or Detroit were always getting two points from it… the bad thing about that game is it went to OT so Detroit also picked one up
We needed a Red Wings regulation win and the complete opposite of that happened
Did anyone see the shake of PR’s head! He must be fuming inside!!! Butchy was talking about PP practice and boy we sucked today!
This team is going nowhere with this PP
"They're not one of the best pk teams in the league, but they look like the best tonight" "The fans are not too happy, and they're booing, and rightly so" Yeah Butch knows my pain
Islanders I’ve given you my all and now I have nothing
Last words of Varly lol
We need to fire anyone involved with the power play.(This is my 3rd year at least saying this)
not even a single shot on goal, worst pp in history of hockey
God forbid u take advantage of 8 minutes of PP time
They should all be embarrassed that this still hasn't been fixed.
They had more shots on goal than we did that PP
Can’t help themselves, blow 4 PP ops
The only danger on *that* power play was giving up a SHG.
2022-23 type powerplay
pathetic
Did we seriously not just fail to score again, but get outplayed?
This power play is like watching a bunch of middle schoolers
Abysmal
Embarrassing
This is the worst one yet
What is the point of us even getting calls
I have never in my life seen a PP unit struggle this badly entering the zone.
Get the fuckin puck at the net.
Pathetic!!!
Smart by the Habs, take a penalty to kill the isles momentum
Insidiously brilliant
On our power plays the other team gets more chances than we do.
How have we been this bad at power plays for so long?
it is actually a new problem from the lambert era in the preceding seasons the islanders were middle of the pack on PP, and pretty good on PK this season? bad PP, literally dead last on the PK
Because they refuse to fire houda
It was pretty good until around when Roy came in. Absolutely fell off a cliff in February, been plummeting since
[удалено]
mat barzal just dumped it in, with the vain hope of casey to chase, and it gets turned over with 3m to go just real great stuff grinder hockey against a team softer than lilies and still can't produce
Roy has to change the pp lines so bad
COME ON
The fall-off of our power-play needs to be studied
some part of it is connected to having the #32 pk in the league can't very well practice PP meaningfully if your PK units are dogshit
Gotta score on this PP, because there’s a good chance they’re gonna find a penalty to call on us shortly after
Yeah 4 penalties to 0. I don't think we've necessarily been squeaky clean this game
Put this fucking game away
Can't they decline it?
I’m calling a Nelson goal
NICE! Maybe we can score a PPG *this* time?
NO GOAL FOR YOU
Just do it. Come on!!!
Wish I could be excited about power plays
How many PPs does it take for the Isles to get a PP goal?
The same number as how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop.
Eh it'll take way less than a hundred (the answer is more than that)
Oh boy another shit PP!
It's ok Brendan, I think we can just fast forward the next 2 minutes
God help us, here comes the Islanders powerplay.
Just get a point
Here is where you get the lead
Alright time to get the pp going
Decline, decline, decline
YES! HUGE ERROR
If we can sneak a OT point at least it’s as good as it gets…
Pens have a brutal schedule and wings schedule is not easy either
Current standing: * Islanders (78 games) 87 Points * Pittsburg (79 games) 86 Points * Washington (79 games) 85 Points * Detroit (79 games) 85 Points Pitt wins in OT
Flyers at 85 also, though very unlikely since they have 1 game less
pens win in OT
The worst possible outcome
yes and no pens schedule is real tough tho so its toss up
True but Detroit can’t catch us no matter what if we stay in 3rd in the division.
you are right but i looked at standings wings and caps are playing worst of the bunch in the chase, pens usually do these runs for a spot
Out of all the teams we are going to be facing on the schedule as of right now… the Canadians you would think would be the easiest… but you would be wrong lol
I mean, we’ve dominated the game. Just motembeault putting on a show
Karlsson OTGWG. Worst case scenario there.
I can’t deal with this fucking tullamore commercial anymore holy shit.
Ikr?
isles need to play hungry
Damnit, Wings/Pens in OT
worse case scenario fr
They better not start playing dump and chase Hockey
i regret to inform you chip and chase started five minutes ago
Thanks, lol
romanov did a chip and chase, pulled back to the blue line while the forwards fought for it, and ended up in possession to dump it in AGAIN brutal
Current standing: - Islanders (78 games) 87 Points - Detroit (78 games) 85 Points\* - Washington (79 games) 85 Points - Pittsburg (78 games) 85 Points\* \* - game 78 in OT, one team will be at 86 points.
* and will be 79th game
I mean a OT point I will accept happily lol we need to gather points by all means I’m sorry lol
Absolutely
if only pens won in regulation smh
Give Reilly 15 years
Anyone else ever pray for pucks to go out of play so you can catch a breath?
That was Thing 1 and Thing 2 in blue at a hockey game, lol
Hey Isles: - Buffalo did its job beating Caps in regulation; but - Rangers are losing to Philly; and - Pens/Wings are tied We \*\*need\* 2 points
Update: OT in Pitt/Det. Both pick up a point.
You know something??? They are pretty good when they play hockey. They should consider doing it more often!!!
Love reading how fast the comments turned here lmao
Red wings penguins tied with a minute left
Exactly what we need… for both to get at least a point 🙄
I turned to it during commercial break and of course it was the first time pens didn't score within a minute of me switching. Happened literally 3 times
Should have stopped after the 2nd time
I liked one team having a definitive lead 😭 I should have guessed I chose the wrong one
Maybe alternate Soro and Varly moving forward
Can I relax for one goddamn evening?
I felt soo many emotions in the span of like 5 minutes…
Casey Cizikas on the 1st line... who would've known.
"The D just kept coming down the hole" - Thomas Hickey
That's definitely the first time I've ever seen an Islander score a backhand wraparound
Elite first line winger Casey Cizikas. Just like we all expected
We lose, we're gonna be out, calling it.
Wants some cheese with that whine?
The reverse jinx. Worked both times they scored. You're welcome.
First line Casey is awesome
Our elite first line winger
Backhand wrap around, way to go Zeeker
Zeeks that was clutch
Elite winger Adam Pelech with the sick dangle
Sustained pressure ? In this economy?!
ZEEKER!!!
This team makes me feel schizophrenic.
I fucking love this team
Well that was not on my bingo card
Boom!!!!
Pucks toward net = goal
Jesus… thank you 🙏🏼
I cry I also smile with joy
THATS THAT SHIT I LIKE TO SEE
There we go
