GDT: MDSF: ISLANDERS vs. PENGUINS| GAME 3 | Are you too good for your HOME?|4/14 12:00PM | PPG

[flaneur]

Game 1?

it got us to OT in game 1, didn't it?

haha... shoddy short term memory

 

[Human]

Someone needs to pay with their heads for being embarrassed by this Islanders team...

 

[Honour Over Glory]

and some really questionable roster moves in there.

And some even more questionable roster usage by the coach.

 

[Turin]

Just don’t do anything stupid like Panarin for Saad and Hjalmarsson for Murphy

 

[end]

2017 was the Hawks, 2018 was the Kings, 2019 is the Pens. End of the 2010s, back to the cellar.

 

[ncm7772]

I remember being chastised in the pre-series thread when I opined this team was lazy.

This series, they've been incredibly lazy in every single facet of the game.

 

[Ogrezilla]

The overrating of Letang on this board is always pretty funny. We couldn't get a bag of pucks last year when we shopped him around.

@Shady Machine It's shit like this

 

[PensandCaps]

I dunno. He's a very important player that needs to get back to or close to 2016 levels in this window right now.
With his injury history and the poor play that comes with it it's a huge gamble.
I guess you can still hold on to him and go out and get guys that can play with(top 4 RD)/above him tho...

Letang was on 2016 levels all year.

 

[WayneSid9987]

why they bring cullen hes trash

Mix of they thought he still had stuff in the tank and he's a great vet for the locker room.

 

[Vega]

f*** it. I hope Isles win the cup.

 

[Clare2904]

Can't wait for the Sully bullshit afterwards

 

[domaug]

why they bring cullen hes trash

this isn't the main board

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Yeah this team doesn't have the sack to repeat 1975 on these guys.

 

[Tacitus Kilgore]

The frustration in this series to me feels like the series against Montreal and Halak, i forget which year that was

 

[chethejet]

Cha cha cha cha changes. Find homes for players who have shown no drive or hunger. It happens and move on from this regime.

 

[BoysofWinter66871]

Guerin regime begins soon. So that’s neat

Islanders inside job!

 

[Ogrezilla]

And some even more questionable roster usage by the coach.

I'm sorry,but I don't think that's even close to as big an issue as who we actually have.

Yeah this team doesn't have the sack to repeat 1975 on these guys.

the *roster

 

[Shrimper]

Oh, Crosby is playing?

Hmm funny. Thought he wasn't.

 

[domaug]

**** it. I hope Isles win the cup.

i would be absolutely shocked if they do. they're absolutely not getting past the Caps.

 

[Beauner]

thats puzzling, he was lights out until PO

Yep. Though he's not the only one I look at and say "what the f*** happened?"

 

[PensandCaps]

No he wasn't and no he's not. He's lazy, stupid and his physical talent is declining. He's not going to get better with age, he's gonna crash and burn because he can't think the game of hockey. Move him to some sucker

Yes he was. And quite clearly.

Obviously must've missed all of his games.

Letang was team MVP right with Sid.

 

[orby]

There is functionally no difference between this and the Bruins sweep, which should have resulted in the coach being fired. Hope the organization doesn't wait an extra year this time. Sullivan clearly has no answer for Trotz's strategy at this point. The fruits of Rutherford's bonehead moves starting after the second Cup win are now ripe, too, and it's plain to see what a damaging two years it's been to the organization.

 

[pensfan71]

The frustration in this series to me feels like the series against Montreal and Halak, i forget which year that was

2010

 

[Jacob]

Gotta trade a bunch of players for picks and do a very quick rebuild. Hornqvist, Schultz, Kessel should be able to fetch some 1sts. Look for some UFA bargains.

 

[madinsomniac]

If we get swept, fire the lot of em
