GDT: GDT #80 New York Islanders @ New York Rangers | April 13th | 12:30 PM | F/3-2 SOL

[Bones45]

Got a point.

 

[The Real JT]

Is it just me or are the faces in the crowd at MSG so punchable?

 

[Strummergas]

Great game. They were hanging in just fine, but you're asking for trouble when you ice the puck three times in a row. Isles had their chances, but as always, not enough finishers. That save on Fasching looked fantastic in real time, but the replay showed Fasching shooting it right into Shesterkin.

 

[IslandersGER]

But does he have any moves? This team just doesn’t have shootout creativity. Franchise spent it all with Frans backhand.

a Dane with no hole ;-)
Grabner was good too

 

[The Lighthouse]

Yeah, this result lowered the chance we play them, and I for one am grateful for that at least

Unfortunately it's pick your poison with Carolina.

 

[12Dog]

I’m guessing the rags are shitting their pants on playing islanders in the playoffs

Nope, Gary gave em the wink and nod
Refs know how it’ll go

Not just you lol

 

[Zeeker]

Unfortunately it's pick your poison with Carolina.

We have a better chance against NYR, but I’d still rather avoid it

 

[Bones45]

I can’t watch an isles rangers first round.

nope.

 

[Quickdraw2828]

Three out of four vs Rangers I'll take all day. Hell of a game. But this pathetic power play has been going on since Tavares was here.

 

[mm11]

Rags could play tight vrs us, especially if we steal one at the garden

 

[Tres Peleches]

Oh well, Rags are a paper tiger unless they manage to get better at 5v5 fast. Much more of that than anything else in the playoffs

 

[PJGooch]

We have a better chance against NYR, but I’d still rather avoid it

The Rangers have one 5v5 goal against this decrepit D in the last six periods. I'd play them in a heartbeat over Carolina.

 

[BrockLobster]

Big point on the road. Isles were the better team today but this happens i guess.

We were better 5 on 5 but our PP looked brutal

It was like we were so predictable that Rangers knew where we were going to pass to

 

[PK Cronin]

Next game that matters to us today starts at 5pm.

 

[Strummergas]

PP was decent but Dobson being out shows how vital he is to the PP. It's completely inept without him.

 

[Islesfan22]

Thought the islanders were better then the Rangers 5on5. Special teams Rangers are superior to the islanders.

 

[Zeeker]

Next game that matters to us today starts at 5pm.

530

 

[Osakahaus]

Gonna need the Caps and Wings to lose tonight, so that wont happen

god we need to get rid of Houda and MacLean

 

[boredmale]

Next game that matters to us today starts at 5pm.

Since we got 1 point today we only need 2 points and we have 2 games left. I ain't holding my breath we clinch tonight, we should be able to do it ourselves.

 

[Chockey22]

pretty good game 5 on 5; but the ridiculously bad PP really hurt. Also, glad there's no shootout in the playoffs - terrible way to decide a game, and Sorokin is just flat out bad in shootouts

 

[Quickdraw2828]

Carolina will crush us. Ranger series is a heart attack waiting to happen

PP was decent but Dobson being out shows how vita he is to the PP. It's completely inept without him.

That long power play to begin the second was beyond pathetic. And that horrible pass that was stolen for Rangers 1st goal was was awful

 

[Crashsunday]

Disappointed the game even went to OT. Pelech’s icing when he had little to no pressure had me talking to myself about how it was going to burn them. Sure enough. Team is very frustrating even on what was a win streak.

Well, like I said, Dobson is vital. When I said it was decent, I meant prior to the last two games.
