GDT: #2| New York Islanders @ Tampa Bay Lightning | September 9th | 8:00 PM | F/L 2-1
- Thread starter MattMartin
- Start date
There probably is no middle ground tonight. The Isles adjust and have a solid win or they probably get beat badly again. I think the series will settle for the ensuing games and things will be tighter for however many additional games get played but I feel tonight will be 3-0/4-1 one way or another.

I think JGP has been a little quiet the past couple of games. Think the odds of him making some more noise is a good bet. I would reunite Leo, Brass and Pager tonight. If Boychuck is good to go, get him in too.
Has boychuk been hurt, or has been a healthy scratch? i have never gotten a direct answer on this

Congratulations! I watched the blue and white scrimmage with mine 12 hours after she was born a couple years ago. I expect that baby to be on your lap for this one, the good luck charm!

He was hurt and since then he's been scratched is the common belief. They don't reveal much information though.

Congrats and good luck!
We have a three month old and I don't think I slept in a week. Or three months. Or maybe more like half a year... I hope we'll see a different team today on the ice, hopefully the effort and determination will be there.

We're not going to get direct answers at this point but Trotz has said that 'everyone is available' a few times. I do wonder with Leo because they usually have multiple guys warm up but they didn't have him warm up when Dal Colle replaced him. Just made me a little curious is all.

She has to wait until the next game to watch it with dad. She is staying in the hospital over night with mom. (Pretty standard procedure over here, that mom and child stays 1-3 nights to be monitored).
But I have brain washed my wife fairly well into this Islanders thing, so I wouldng be surprised if she is watching the game if she cant sleep. (Puck drop 3AM here)

Not to get too side tracked or personal, but I was able to spend the entire time with my wife and stayed in the hospital with her, is that not common over there? Between COVID, cultural norms, and you having another child to worry about I'm just a little curious.

I thought it looked like Leo got hurt in the third period of game 6. Played a bit through the overtime, but didn't look right, and missed the last two games. Hope he's ok. I think he's a better choice than MDC or Knuckles, and likely the best choice for getting under Kucherov's skin.

Should buy a Bailey jersey if we make it to the Finals?

I think you making that commitment could be the karma we need to get us past TB. Do it for the team, Bones.

So if you're alone tonight, is it Kalsarikännit time?
