Pre-Game Talk: Carolina Hurricanes @ Isles 7PM

[Mr Misunderstood]

Woah, is that an Islander hockey game I see on today's schedule? FINALLY.

Big 5 game stretch here with 4 metro games and the big, bad Bolts. Truly believe they need a win tonight against the always pesky Canes. Keep that home cookin' going and get those 2 points. LGI!

Always seem to play like crap against the Canes. This is a game that worries me.

Staple: Bizarre #Isles stat of the day: They are 5-12-3 in their last 20 home games against Carolina. 1-1-2 in Barclays Center. The Canes last made the playoffs in 2008-09.

 

[MJF]

This isn't a Western conference team. Time to give a 60 minute effort.

LGI

I agree --- we never seem to beat them.

Take a look at the December schedule --- its PACKED!

 

[Dipietro39]

72-29-66 on the third line . . . I like it. Capuano would NEVER play Barzal, JHS, AB and Pulock at the same time. And certainly would play Quine over JHS. What a difference a year makes.

27-91-12
16-13-7
72-29-66
15- 53 -25

Best forward lineup in years.

2-55
44-50
6-14

Let's get this big stretch started off the correct way!

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

Hickey in, come on guys put @PWJunior's theory to rest. Win the dang game with Mouse in the lineup

 

[Islanders4Cups]

Weight going all in with less defense overall. Expecting a 5-3 or 6-4 either way.

 

[Kevin27NYI]

Third line needs a big game. I'll be going, can't wait to see some Isles hockey.

Shouldn't PW be sitting on the throne all game to ensure a victory? Or was that someone else?

 

[Dipietro39]

Weight going all in with less defense overall. Expecting a 5-3 or 6-4 either way.

Mayfield and Seidenberg haven't been great defensively either. Pulock's defensive game isn't much worse than either of those guys.

It was him but we gotta save that for later in the year.

Actually.. every game is a must win right? Somebody get him some chili!

 

[MJF]

One day Weight will sack up and dress 6, 42, 50 in the same game. But good on him for scratching Quine in favor of Ho-Sang and his irrelevant goal.

Truer words have never been spoken about this place. We don't win tonight -- whole season is down da tubes...

I can start a GoFundMe to buy him Chipotle lunch

I'm done with that shit.

 

[mm11]

big opportunity for that AB, Nelson, Ho Sang line.....This could be a high scoring 6-4 toss up. Hope Greiss brings it tonight...

 

[Kevin27NYI]

I'm done with that ****.

Wait and see how you feel in April/May!!

 

[PWJunior]

The unlucky charm of suckage is back in. Gonna love watching him get manhandled again.

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

I'm done with that ****.

I see what you did there...

 

[Riseonfire]

wowie, that forward lineup. Let's hope we don't get blown out or we'll never see it again.

 

[SLAPSHOT723]

It's crazy how we never beat Carolina. Let's finally do it tonight. They're not that good.
