GDT: GDT #52 New York Islanders vs Calgary Flames | February 10th | 1 PM | F/5-2 L

[The Wahligator]

Palmieri has been playing his balls off since Roy came in

 

[impaaaaaact]

they all knew this was coming. gotta score

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Had chances on that PP, can't buy one.

 

[Tres Peleches]

Bag skates is it, play stupid games win stupid prizes boys

 

[Zeeker]

That was certainly a fun six minutes of gameplay

 

[thegoldenyear]

Pfft. Serves the greedy shit right!

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Markstrom trying to make it interesting

 

[Tres Peleches]

Sell, Lou. And sell Lou

 

[The Wahligator]

At the end of the day that game was no different than what we’ve seen all year, the onus now falls on the roster and the GM.

 

[scottywiper]

Well ENs are not our thing...

 

[Nassau Revisited]

This is not a playoff team. A good GM not in his 80s would recognize that and make some deals to shed contracts and re tool. Trading Nelson must happen.


Engvall and Mayfield are both AHL players at this point. Engvall is one of the softest players I have ever seen

 

[impaaaaaact]

well that was fun

 

[Zeeker]

At least we’ll get a point update in the Dobson thread tomorrow from that guy

 

[steveat]

Can't wait for the team to announce the retirement of Lou and immediately congratulate Chris as the Islander's new GM.

First move for Chris would be to lock up Clutterbuck and Martin to 4 year contracts

 

[Throttle]

There ya go. Way to step up. -3

 

[warrior60]

Nelson might be playing himself off the team if he continues this level of play down the stretch.

Feels like one of those late Trotz era games where no matter what they do they just aren’t capable of scoring.

Maybe they could get a second rounder for him at dead line. And move Barzal to the second line center.

with NMC of course!

 

[Nassau Revisited]

with NMC of course!

How could I forget the NMC.

 

[The Real JT]

Engvall has taken over first place in my Least Favorite Islander contest.

He’s a softer Josh Bailey with a lower hockey IQ.

 

[Symon Asher]

nothing. He’s just a hot-dogging prick who thinks people come to see him and his unnecessary bullshit theatrics

Varly is not the only reason they’re losing this game… but good lord he is a massive reason

13 M on average at best goaltending might be Lou’s worst move

 

[MJF]

dude's gotten benched by three straight coaches now. he would have more value if we didn't play him

It just isn’t there with Wahlstrom. Waive him and send him down. If somebody claims him, even better.

 

[scottywiper]

Has Lee scored under Roy?
The team has unquestionably been better since Roy took over, until today.
The next couple of weeks we find out if that's genuine sustainable improvement, or just a new coach bounce.
If it's the latter then that's a player issue.

 

[Nassau Revisited]

Engvall has taken over first place in my Least Favorite Islander contest.

He’s a softer Josh Bailey with a lower hockey IQ.

Watch him go towards any puck on the corner or near the boards. Engvall has elite talent at avoiding contact and allowing the other team to take control. I said it before but there is a reason Tornonto dumped him before going into the playoffs

Mayfield is having one of his worst seasons. He is making such bad decisions. Again on the PK today he is caught way to high up and a guy is left wide open in front. Just before the goal he is somehow higher up then the puck over half way to the blue line…
