GDT: 1/13/19 - 7:00PM EDT - Tampa Bay @ New York Islanders

I just want them to get a goal. And then 4+ more of course. But start with just one before the period ends.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

This one is over.


This isn't a team I want to face in the playoffs. Trotz just seems to have us figured out. Even when we get our chances we don't capitalize but for the most part they block lanes that are our bread and butter. That's a huge emphasis in their defense right now and so many of our good looks are taken away quicker than any other team we play.

We probably win them in a playoff series but would be close. Trotz knows how to play us and I completely agree as they are getting in all the lanes. More likely to be a one time thing though

1 out of 82.

. 18-1-1 last 20 not that bad, due for a stinker or 2!!

 

[ccman68]

I don't think it's been that bad of a game. Greiss has been good and the refs gifted them the 4th goal. Could easily be 3-2 with some luck.

 

[Lightning1995]

Hope Heddy is ok.

Little worried about Vassy. He’s so up and down

 

[Steazy Doo]

How did Hedman get hurt on that? Jeeze man

 

[Stormbreaker]

The boys are still pressing just can't buy a goal. Zero puck luck in this one.

 

[ccman68]

Over 20 shots this period. Unlucky stuff

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

There's one

 

[Stormbreaker]

That's 1!

 

[dechire]

McD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On the board now win it in the 3rd

 

[Fabiobest]

MCDONAGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[rangerrat]

Welcome back Mac truck!!

 

[Hoek]

Trotz is a great coach, but this is a prototype example of why hockey should NEVER have back to back games.

If we were playing a rested TBL you'd be up 7-1 by now, at least - you're coming off a late game against BUF and while we played yesterday, it was a 1pm game.. The talent gap between the teams is vast.

Nah that's a lame excuse. Everyone has b2bs and it hasn't stopped us from winning before. We only beat you 4-2 earlier in the season you aren't THAT bad. Credit to your 4th line and Greiss.

 

[ccman68]

All of Mcdonagh's goals are flukey

 

[Steazy Doo]

Stamkos has played good today. So has Palat.

 

[AlphaCatalyst]

Comeback started.

 

[harpman]

Finally! About time.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Queue the comeback

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Isles really testing our 4 goals a game ability.

 

[TeslaCoilFan]

WTG Mac!!!!!

 

[Stormbreaker]

 

[Lightning1995]

Heddy upper body injury will not return. Maybe traded KK too soon

 

[Stammertime91]

Wonder what was said between Greiss and McD at the end there...

 

[Stammertime91]

It's ok. We can just slide McD up and Coburn for a game. Let Koekkoek go in on the bottom pairing.


Oh wait.

Jan Rutta, ladies and gentlemen, and Dom.
