Might as well mail it in. These players don't have the urgency to win.

Or they just aren't that good and lost to a better team.

With Pittsburgh playing the best hockey in the league right now they'll probably lose, but just watch if they some how pull this out they'll still go in to the weekend 1 point behind the 8th spot.

Last two games have been such a let down. I can't even get excited for this one. Just gonna get hammered in Manhattan instead of watching this sure-fire train wreck.

aaaaaaaaaand i asked myself the same question. BUT, we wouldnt be here after all these years if we just gave up when things got bad...bc theyve been bad for decades(with a few decent seasons mixed in). I got them bc my mum hasnt been to a game in 2 years so i figured, oh points in 7 of 8, ill go friday and see sid and the pens. *sigh*

At least the team shouldnt be too tired. Theyve only played 80 minutes this week.

Because of the last 2 loses I'm not sure if a win tonight really impacts anything. The Isles need to go on a win streak to make this game "count".

I'm not optomistic on this teams chances.. But just look at the standings a win tonight and they're 1 point out of 8, 3 out of 7 I'm sure it impacts it a little bit.

I know it's all fire and brimstone here but before the season I woulda signed up in a damn second to be playing to only be 1 point out of the 8th seed.

:shakehead Finley in to play against an incredibly fast team...for the much quicker Hickey. So our last pair will be the dynamic duo of Carkner and Finley? Boy better hope that none of the top 4 get a penalty or worse and these two are on the ice against Crosby or Neal or Geno(if hes back)

It's almost as if Capuano has never watched a hockey game.

I wonder if we have won a single game all year when Finley & Carkner have both played.

Word for word that's exactly what I thought when I read the tweet.. Not to mention Grabs remaining on the fourth line.. More brilliance from Cappy

Did we give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? NO! ....and we sure as hell won't give up now. We will win tonight because we have absolutely no reason too.

Wasnt it the Japanese in Pearl Harbour?

I think cappy is thinking about size against Pitt. Dont matter Finley and Hickey are both over matched tonight. Welcome to the Crosby show....
