Pre-Game Talk: Islanders VS Leafs. Back to back encore.

[ACC1224]

Center Ice. Roges 455 or 454.

You you can watch hockey back to back to back like I did last night.

Called in sick this morning ... who needs job when you have hockey

You will when mom and dad stop paying the cable bill.

nothing wrong with that. in fact, if you watch, you'll see the D often switch sides. this is for the 1 timer. if Liles and Phaneuf are out there together Phaneuf is going to be on the right side for the shot and passes coming from Liles.

remember Kaberle and McCabe?

Basically that's the way you have to go, if two of your best defensemen, shoot from the same side.

We only have 2 right handed shots on the team one is Kostka the other is Komisarek and I don't suggest we use Komisarek on the PP.

Usually in a two minute penalty, you would use two pairings, so if you have Phanuef and Liles as one pairing who plays the other?

I think Carlyle is trying to have two good pairings to play out the entire penalty.

 

[TML g u n n e R s*]

nvm head bust for now

 

[ACC1224]

Gunnarsson should be no where near a PP.

 

[TieClark]

Gunnarsson shouldn't even be playing never mind on the pp

Gardiner will be on the first unit soon. I would assume Liles and Kostka or Gunn on the other. Kostka is a better option than Gunn

not sure what point you think you are making?

lol, get a clue bro, get a clue.

 

[wingnutks]

The thing I sorta laugh at, is that the Islanders likely can't afford to amnesty him, so you guys are stuck with him still.

DP is freakin brutal. Maybe we will hurt him for you guys

Looks like Nabby is in net.

 

[Patty Lee]

Looks like Nabby is in net.

for probably close to 40 games this year so no surprise there

 

[ACC1224]

Wouldn't go that far but it's nice to see him off the top pair.

 

[Budsfan]

The point I trying to make, is that Phanuef and Liles cant play the entire 2 minutes on the Power Play and to keep the pressure on, Carlyle has split them up, so there is 4 decent Defensemen playing at all times.

 

[Diamond Joe Quimby]

You will when mom and dad stop paying the cable bill.

Boom. You just got ACC'd.

 

[Eb]

Everyone watch Matt Martin tonight. #17 for the Isles.

Beauty.

I agree he will split them up but because Gardiner is the better option once he's back in game shape. that way he'll have his two best dmen on for the first PP unit.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Gards should be getting first PP duties soon

Agreed, however I think Carlyle will only let him when he sees he's back to game shape not asap.

I laughed at that when watching lol.

 

[Diamond Joe Quimby]

Gunnarsson shouldn't even be playing never mind on the pp

Hyperbole. Not on the PP yes, but he does have value 5 on 5 and on the PK.

 

[Patty Lee]

Boom. You just got ACC'd.

lol. happens to a lot of people. some don't even realize it...

Struck by a smooth criminal.

God I hope so lol. Looks like DP will face Boston.

Like a Ninja.

 

[Cool Beans Man]

lol, get a clue bro, get a clue.

Gunnarsson should be playing, but let's not kid ourselves, Carl has been downright awful the last 2 games.

 

[Patty Lee]

God I hope so lol. Looks like DP will face Boston.

probably not winnable with either in net so... not going to destroy DP like it would a young guy to be lit up

 

[The Podium]

Will NHL Center Ice's free preview black out the Leaf game tonight (either Rogers cable or Shaw satellite)?

 

[Twix]

Have they announced who's getting the start tonight?

 

[GordieHoweHatTrick]

still bitter about the loss that kicked us out of the playoffs.

I'm 99% sure it wasn't a loss. The Isles were playing the Devils. NJ played Clemmensen because they clinched a birth and they just **** the bed against the Isles. They started playing in the last few minutes of the game and actually tied the Isles but NY won in a shoot-out, the extra point knocked us out of the playoffs.
