Post-Game Talk: #52 |New York Islanders @ Buffalo Sabres | May 3rd | 7:00 | F/L 4-2

[Tres Peleches]

Disallowed goal was huge. At that stage Sabres were lifeless and the reprieve gave them life.

Yup.

Anytime I see anyone complain about people complaining about the refs all I think of is, “this poster doesn’t get it

 

[The Real JT]

Yeah, but I promise you it’s not “friendly” enough.

How much you guys want to bet we are about to hear Barry Trotz say something about Buffalo along the lines of "that is a prideful team over there, give them credit."

Buffalo didn’t even play good. The isles just played that bad

 

[scottywiper]

Interesting looking at goals, there was no excitement from players when we scored.

 

[19 in a row]

We resign players like Brock Nelson.

Vegas goes out and trades for Mark Stone.


There’s a difference.

Nelson line actually looked pretty good today, only line which had a push, Wally also showed some life but the rest of the team. not so much.

 

[Poulin 0n My St1ck]

f*** it, I’d healthy scratch the guys wearing #21 and #14 and play MDC.

Chalk that trade up to being a giant L.

 

[Throttle]

Teams have figured out what to do with Barzal, pressure him with 2 guys and he won’t look for open guy he will try to elude them with turn after turn . He so busy zigging and zagging he can’t see anyone and eventually coughs up the puck. He’s lost right now

Certainly doesn’t look like Barzal is leader quality. Has the opportunity to put the team on his back w/o Lee as the best player...and he’s more Seguin-like.

Barzal just looked like he didn't want to be there.

 

[Tres Peleches]

I’ve lost any hope for Palmieri getting going

Sadly we have to chalk this one up to a lost 1st round pick at this point

My gosh it is so not about one game that I don’t even know how you could give that reply.

Pains me to type it, but they bring absolutely ZILCH. Sample Size has been sufficient, the experiment failed.

that is exactly what I saw. very passive at times. with his stick on loose pucks and a bunch of puck he just lost for no reason, not le him. Lost a big face-off and created a screen by being ou too position on the winning goal.

 

[scott99]

Honestly, tonight I’m embarrassed to be an Isles’s fan. They desperately need wins to get home ice, they are 11-13-2 on the road, 20-3-3 at home, yet they lose to the worst team in hockey starting their 9th string goalie. So f***ing embarrassing. This team s going nowhere, except golfing. Gonna get swept in the 1st round. To be outplayed by the worst team in hockey is inexcusable.

I know that, we know that, I am saying watch that is what Trotz is going to say. After humiliating losses like this he always tries to make excuses.

 

[Strait2thecup]

and probably a 1st round playoff loss :/. These guys suck

 

[periferal]

Is the devils were paying all of Palmieri’s contract I’m not sure it would be enough.

Beyond shocking what is zero he has been.

 

[19 in a row]

My gosh it is so not about one game that I don’t even know how you could give that reply.

and I dont know why you would single someone out that had a pretty good game. so it goes both ways. My comment stands. Nelson line had a pretty good game. I have no issue with his contract.

Not only that, but look at the standings. Boston is probably gonna win this division. Think about where they were at the trade deadline. They get Hall and Mike Reilly, do not even give up a first round pick. And they have done nothing but win, while all we do is lose except when playing the Rags.

Yeah. He might just be a poor fit in Barry’s system, but good lord he is doing nothing to help his cause going into FA

 

[Poulin 0n My St1ck]

It’s so frustrating that they each bring absolutely nothing. I know we like to rib MDC here occasionally, but I’ve liked his game this year and there are at least positive results when he’s in the lineup compared to when those two dipshits came from NJ.

Hall was always my top choice. I really thought Palms would help. But we got fleeced

12 GP 1G 1A

Zajac right behind him with 9GP 1G 1A.

1st round pick for 21GP 2G 2A. Brutal. Not saying I know better than Lou, and hindsight is always 20/20 but those looking to go for Hall were right.

These guys have injected no life into the team. They are the epitome of unremarkable.

Always hope. But signs are not good

 

[GrandmaSlices51631]

If we are being true with ourselves and fellows posters, it is not farfetched to say we could have gotten the same results and offense with Andrew Ladd brought up.

Yup. Honestly I’d seriously consider benching Palmieri.

MDC at least brings an honest effort, which is more than I can say for either of the players we received from that trade
