Post-Game Talk: #26| New York Islanders @ Montreal Canadiens | December 3rd | 7:00 PM | F/L 4-2

[Bones45]

Too much standing around tonight. Only the puck holder is skating around. Everyone else is stationary waiting for a pass.

Roughest game I've see all year...by far.

 

[Barzaltrick]

Scotty Gomez did nothing wrong. We just aren't skilled or quick enough to have a high power PP.

No one can complete a f***ing pass either.

It's between this and the Ducks game for me. They feel remarkably similar to me.

Typical MO on the PP. They will remain in the bottom 1/3 of the league with this approach.

 

[Doshell Propivo]

2nd game of a back to back, on the road, in a different city against a rested home team.

Relax.

Do I hear a 2nd for a Scott Gomez Appreciation thread?

 

[12Dog]

On the power play, they’re trying to make dot to dot cross ice passes while Montreal is playing a diamond
Very difficult to execute

 

[Strummergas]

It's been better this year, but they do tend to fall back into old habits.

 

[ekill08x]

Not tonight, no.

Obvious Gomez sucked balls but at some point we just have to admit it’s the players...leddy most of all whenever he’s out there

 

[GrandmaSlices51631]

Explain how ref misses first check on Nelson?

Refs do let some stuff go , particularly the plays that look like "Ol Time Hockey", have you seen some of the shit Mayfield gets away with behind our net?

 

[The Real JT]

Denial
Anger
Bargaining
Depression
Acceptance: I'm finally there with Leddy

Scott Gomez did an amazing job constructing the power play.

 

[Strummergas]

Obvious Gomez sucked balls .

Well, at least you've admitted that you were wrong

 

[Bones45]

2nd game of a back to back, on the road, in a different city against a rested home team.

Relax.

Nope. Refs fault.


Or the ice.

Or Jennifer... could be all three

 

[Tres Peleches]

Isles are definitely a step behind. They don’t have their legs tonight, and when a team like the Isles don’t have their legs they won’t win 99% of the time.

happens over the course of the season, but just have to make sure it doesn’t become a pattern of such games

 

[Strummergas]

Scott Gomez did an amazing job constructing the power play.

Yeah, and MDC is gonna score 30 this year.

 

[imetbossy]

Looking at trotz it seemed as if he didn’t even bother contesting the goal - he probably wanted the goal to count so as to stick it to the team !

 

[ekill08x]

Well, at least you've admitted that you were wrong

Never said he was good you just read what you wanted to. But more than the guy drawing it up it’s the players and always will be.

And also prevent an unnecessary power play for the Habs

 

[Strummergas]

Obviously they have to execute. But the game plan this year seems better. It's silver lining stuff, but it is progress. I'll take it.

 

[Doshell Propivo]

I think if the islanders score a goal he will decline it.

 

[Barzaltrick]

Capuano is looking down from heaven in disgust. He deserves better.

 

[Bones45]

I think if the islanders score a goal he will decline it.

There's definitely something in the air tonight

 

[Doshell Propivo]

There's definitely something in the air tonight

Fernando?
