They had to win game one, they outplay Carolina, and failed to do so with some help from the refs for Carolina, and were the better team. Game two they took only 12 shots, with none for the first sixteen minutes. Carolina had 110 shot attempts and outshot New York 19-1 in the third, and still New York had the lead with Carolina's goalie pulled. Tying goal/winning goal nine seconds later. ENG. 2-0 and all the excuses in place as to why they could have won the series but lost. Unreal, but hardly unexpected. First time in the teams history they lost a playoff game up 3-0.

#NYC #NYI #isles Honestly despite season series wins (under Lambert) I can't see Carolina not winning 4-5 games. Not last year they are healthy, and their goaltending is 10x better with Andersen (not Raanta) red hot + special teams huge mismatch + no Dobson/40+shots against plan. — X-New York Islander Fan Central (@NYIFANCENTRAL) April 18, 2024 Sorry, add to it no rest, maybe Lee/Pageau unavailable, what happens when unbeaten streak ends because we see big winning steaks followed by big losing streaks with Varlamov inploding ..read more

A lot of long-term scratches played very well. 17-1 outshot after fast start, but Pens faded. Pitch and putt with nine iron for 15 goals/23 games made me look bad. Keep doing it. Ping pong left injured early. Wahlstrom looked very good, Holmstrom scoring hands goal. Too much pressure when Pens put Crosby/Malkin out there, but their team had breakdowns. Hardly a soft game 82 a lot of wear/tear. Now they get least rest in NHL and play Saturday at 5pm. Sorokin was much better then score, and faced many prime chances. Have not been optimistic wrote go win 10/12 and they did, but name of the game i ..read more

Hear from the #Isles following tonight's playoff-clinching win. — New York Islanders (@NYIslanders) April 16, 2024 #NYC #NYI #isles Against all odds, with all the weaknesses and downside in every area, they not only earned a playoff spot but the third seed. Every team chasing them got two points. Only 19 shots, the ping pong player finally gave them one, even a powerplay goal. EARNED SPOT. — X-New York Islander Fan Central (@NYIFANCENTRAL) April 16, 2024 #NYC #NYI #Isles Anyone who said they were going to go 7-0-1 and get the third seed is lying to you. It would have been 8-0 if NHL did not ..read more

Tonight, a team they blew a 4-1 lead against at New Jersey and lost 5-4. (one point would have clinched a spot) A second 5-4 overtime loss at the failed Belmont experiment, followed by Patrick Roy NYI outclassed with a 4-0 shutout. No Hughes, nothing to play for tonight but Devils final home game. New York will wear blue. Roy going back to Varlamov over the teams best goaltender. The @NYIslanders have scenarios Monday to secure both a #StanleyCup Playoffs spot and the No. 3 seed in the Metropolitan Division. The simplest is to win their game against the Devils (7 p.m. ET on MSGSN, MSGSN2).#NH ..read more

Officials finally give our team a huge powerplay advantage vs Knicks hockey (not a favorable review) 0-5 with the man advantage, allowed a short-handed chances, many others too. Has anything changes since Covid game 7 vs Tampa+ two coaches later?. Should have won going away, even without Dobson. Sorokin was great. Knicks hockey looked very soft, despite shots. Another point given away. #NYC #NYI #isles Not great news in standings but good news.

High marks to New York, they played a bad team that was 2-0 against them, they came here rested off nine goals, and still NYI allowed only 14 shots. I'm not Pageau fan (as everyone knows) but he took on Gallagher and threw some fists. Laura Ingalls Engvall gave them something. Still they were trailing in the third, and found some luck, this time without Dobson, who is about 30 percent of the teams offense off his shots. Cizikas of all people got a gift wrap around and somehow Palmieri's overtime all or nothing shift resulted in an odd angle winner. Let them make me look bad, don't care. I writ ..read more

Now we know why no NHL team rang Patrick Roy's phone. He was a 500. coach besides one year, now he's here, his statements, line combinations, and criticism of the best goalie in the NHL are major red flags. Sorokin has faced the most shots in the NHL, made the most saves, of course he's tired/struggling, and getting little help from a forward group that is old/slow/can't backcheck or kill penalties. The shots against have declined under Roy but you see it every game with the NYI goals coming off point shots, on defense the players beat on walls because forwards slow, leave passing lanes open ..read more
