GDT: Toothless vs. Tavares: Knights begin road trip on Long Island TODAY Monday 4 p.m. on TV

[CupInSIX]

Like he's out for the game, or is he just out until the 3rd? Whatcha think?

He looked hurt but stayed in. The goal happened after the next faceoff so I'd imagine he's out for the rest of the game for precautionary reasons.

Unless...

 

[BattleBorn]

Well, people were initially higher on Lagace, so we'll see what he's got.

This has got to stop at some point though, right?

Well we are running out of goalies... so yes.

 

[VanIslander]

We got one shot from downtown in the first minute.

Lots of scrambling otherwise.

 

[Northern Knights]

Miller high-sticked. No penalty.

 

[Benched]

Another goalie hurt? Seriously?

 

[VanIslander]

The last two and a half minutes:

A LOT of movingt he puck up and down the ice along the boards. The Knights had a loose puck in front but the Isles dman was faster at getting to it and clearing it. Then we got a one-man rush and off angle shot attempt.

At least the Isles aren't getting a chance on Legace.

 

[CupInSIX]

Clutterbuck makes it 4-2

Another goalie hurt? Seriously?

Those voodoo dolls other teams made after the expansion draft are working.

 

[Northern Knights]

4-2 Isles. Goal by Clutterbuck.

 

[Bart9349]

Not too happy:

 

[VanIslander]

BAD angle, BAD goal.

Short side even.

I think the goalie well has run dry.

 

[Northern Knights]

We need a lucky goal or two.

 

[Northern Knights]

BAD angle, BAD goal.

Short side even.

I think the goalie well has run dry.

Call up Ferguson? I don't even know any more.

 

[Northern Knights]

Culemin breakaway, which he scores on. I think this one is probably over.

Hopefully one of our three injured goalies can come back soon.

 

[Pia8988]

Sucks to see the streak end this eay. Lagace has not been good.

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

Here comes the slide. Hope the non knowledgeable fans are ready.

 

[CupInSIX]

Just need a couple goals in the next 9 minutes. It's doable.

 

[Bart9349]

Even the Islander announcers were forced to admit, "Legace doesn't do a good job there."

 

[Northern Knights]

Then Tavares gets a breakaway, and scores.

 

[VanIslander]

We had three nice chances there! Good HUSTLE, good effort.

Of course, when you press like that, you are going to give up odd-man rushes against.

We gave up a breakaway on the turnover and the goalie let it go in five hole.

Now, Tavares deserves credit for the move late, but we NEEDED Legace to come up big on a save there, especially given he WAS responsible for the previous goal.

This game is done.

I'd be impressed as heck if we manage to come back here. I just can't see it.

On to Madison Square Garden tomorrow night against the Rags.

[VanIslander]

This IS turning into a Zetterberg-like 3rd period! Only Tavares is filling Zetterberg's skates.

We lost this game in the third, like our previous loss.

 

[CupInSIX]

they're not helping Lagace in the slightest with these breakaways

MILLER SCORES
Tuch with the screen again

 

[BattleBorn]

Good lord. I had to take care of some customers and it got really ugly.

Is it as ugly as the score?

 

[BattleBorn]

I return and they score.

I'm telling all following customers to leave at once.
