Still need to win against the Canes. Terrible loss.That’s the right call. While I wasn’t impressed by the Caps, they were the better team. Nice to steal a point.
9 loser points still 9 pts
According to that “smart” guy Dom “refuses to take an” L. They arentNice third period. Wish they had gotten going earlier but it’s hard on second end of a B2B versus a well rested team.
So many 3v3 and shootout losses this year. Surely that’s a sign of a team with no hope to make a playoff run!
Completely disagree. Dobson was expecting a quick clean change. It took Pags forever to get off. Pageau had a horrific overtime.It’s 100% on Dobs. They were almost a minute into their shift and right next to the bench, why wouldn’t they go for a change. Dobson CANNOT go into the zone and stand still along the boards. He CAN NOT
I’d love to bank some more points in post-regulation hockey but regular season OT and shootout sessions are carnival games. That’s not real hockey. I still wish we were better at it though.One of my fave things around here is how some posters talk about "loser points" as if the Islanders are the only team who exist in this system. The entire League earns points this way.
We are gonna end up with like 30 OT/Shootout losses this year

I think it was just the case of a bad play all around. If Aho were to make that turnover he would be getting destroyed here. Dobson needed to know where everyone was but the puck likely should have been circled back around there.
Then MOVE THE PUCK, even if it’s shooting the puck back towards your goaltender, you cannot skate to a spot along the wall and stop and stand there like a deer in headlights.Completely disagree.

Yeah especially after that first period, you do take it.meh 1 point. I’ll take it on a back to back
Every time I think Barzal has taken next step...he takes a step back again.
He just kept turning it over tonight.
he clearly was out of gas, tanks were empty tonight. same with Barzal, Horvat, Nelson, the go to men were completely out of sync and not in good shape conditionally. Mentally they forced OT but that was all they could get. Let them rest until next game.Our Golden Boy f***ed up, clear and simple. He'll learn from this and move on. It happens.
Now I know why he was skating in circles all night.It happens and it seemed like the ice was shit.
Imagine if they didn’t have that stretch where they blew every third period lead in existence15-8-9. What a bizarre record
