[impaaaaaact]

believe that's 5 goals and 8 assists for Barzal in 10 roy games

 

[BelovedIsles]

Only saw the third. Nice shot by Pelech, and Barzal looked like one of the best players on the ice (I see he also had a goal).

Even They Screw Us!!!!!

 

[Bones45]

Even when they win. I’m bitter. Lol

 

[IslandersGER]

we can win with 5 goals and not a single point by Dobson?!

 

[IslandersGER]

lol, Horvat and Barzal were not on ice when Pelly scored but credited with assist

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

Even when they win. I’m bitter. Lol

Only thing worse would be a Bailey OTW

 

[DerekKingSnipes]

Are they stupid team in third, do they have fight, is it all true?

 

[Zeeker]

lol, Horvat and Barzal were not on ice when Pelly scored but credited with assist

Shh, that was an elite secondary assist from Horvat

 

[IslandersGER]

Only thing worse would be a Bailey OTW

oh, trying desperately to qualify as dickhead, congrats you won!

 

[warrior60]

Barzal gets the assist.

He should go buy a couple power ball tickets.

 

[seafoam]

This team actually can't win in regulation, it's insane...maybe @periferal was right, they should fire GMLL and the next GM should literally sell off Barzal, Dobson, Horvat, Sorokin...

 

[IslandersGER]

with 23-32 W-L we have same points as Devs with 28-27 W-L
but but....the loser points, yeah! 23-18-14 vs 28-23-4

 

[Green]

That's the strategy, try and eek your way out of the 5x5 in regulation and hope you win in the crap shoot 3x3 OT and Shoot out, unfortunately if this team by some miracle makes the playoffs the gimmicky 3x3/ shootout isn't in the playoffs

Your sarcasm is noted, but I want to get on record that I never said "sell off"/trade any of our top 4 players.


(that said other than Nelson those are about the only players who would return anything of value in a trade)

 

[periferal]

Barry Trotz might be the greatest coach of all time.

Yup. Pretty much.

I'll keep watching when I have nothing else to do. So here I am; April couldn't come soon enough.

What do you have to do in April?

You never were in favor of a rebuild? Because, if you were and you got your wish and the Isles did start a rebuild a couple of years ago, then Horvat is never here in the first place. Sorokin would not have extended with the Isles and would be gone. You may as well trade Barzal since he'll be well over 30 by the time the team is in the playoffs again. So you're left with Dobson, but after the 7 or 8 years it would take for the rebuild to come to fruition Dobson would be old enough that the people in favor of a rebuild in the first place would be saying he's got to go for futures.

 

[Osakahaus]

Its absolutely insane how they did it AGAIN

I know, but it’s fun to shit on you.

 

[Throttle]

The best part is the team is marked for death in the third period by every opponent.

 

[PK Cronin]

One is clearly more competent though. And it’s not the isles

I was in Pittsburgh for their game against the Kings after raising Jagr's number, these teams are the Spider-Man meme.

 

[Steve55]

Even though I tuned in just after Holmstrom's goal in the second, the game was a quite a cliffhanger, especially after Reilly put the Isles up 4-2, after which Penguins tied the game, and stormed Sorokin especially towards the end of regulation. Pelech's 1st goal of the season in OT couldn't have come at a better time.

 

[BelovedIsles]

What do you have to do in April?

Watch the playoffs as a neutral bystander.

 

[YearlyLottery]

Trade the 1st to get rid of Lee and then trade Nelson to get additional assets. Team cannot hold a lead still so while a win is nice nothing really changed.
