We've gotten a couple warnings today already. Don't call Crosby a diver was my favourite.
- Cptmjl

he was born and raised a diver and you know what who cares. The league is producing more talented players anyway. He is not the NHL baby anymore that time has passed. He is very injury prone and even though I don't hate the guy and think he is extremely talent, if he is not careful out there unfortunately his time will be short in the NHL

I just have a gut feeling that JT is coming up huge tonight. He is due. Sick goal he had last game but I can just see him taking charge tonight. My main concern is in net. People were mocking Fleury at the game on Sunday but Nabby was just as bad. Here’s hoping he can turn it around big time.

I have a feeling Nabby is going to have to be on top of his game tonight for us to win this one.

About as stale as the Crosby is a diver talk?
- schiefer466

It can only be stale after he stops doing it. until then the moniker will stick.

And yet we have no reason to be confident in that. Funny for all the talk about 'playoff experience' the two guys we have who've had extensive playoff experience have offered very little (Reasoner and Nabby).

I didn't even notice the sign with Philly having some of their finest fit women on the page...

MAF - 2.55, .923 on 104SA
Nabby - 4.77, .836 on 73SA

Fleury is not playing bad, just facing a TON of rubber.

who cares?
- Cptmjl

Not real....

Neal and Orpik back in the lineup. Should make this game even better
- Vukota

Neal is a wuss...Disappears when checked tightly. Orpik on the other hand is solid,

Not real....

Gotta love those guys...
Kasper you sweating?

the side of his face thats painted with the isles logo is sweating, the side with the penguins logo is as cool as a cucumber...

Who said Neal is tough?

Here's to hoping the Pitt side is running like Tammy Faye's mascara tonight!

- Vukota

Neal needs to have Martin deliver a flying elbow to his head when Neal's not anywhere near the puck. Then I'd go from hating Martin to being a fan.

You are a troll.

True.

I wear no colors let the best team win, that is all that it comes down.

I honestly feel if Nabby goes back to his old self the Islanders can win this series. I believe he has been the major hole so far

- kasperrko

The major hole has been the penalty kill and PP and the fact that the Isles can't stay out of the box. I don't care how well Nabby plays, if the Isles don't stop giving the Pens 5-3's and four or five power plays per game, they're not going to win the series.

nabby has been average...lets not forget who he is playing; not exactly a defensive team. gotta give credit to the pens offense, they are also paid to play.

nabby has been fine considering the circumstances...the main issue has been special teams. both the isles pp and pk have sucked!! they gotta figure it out otherwise theyll be out in 5.

True but still there was some goals that I have seen Nabby save through out the year. He is letting in some softies

Well when you got Andrew MAcdonald skating around on the PP don't expect much

hes been on the successful pp unit the entire year... cant just point the finger at him now because its convenient and you need a scapegoat.

Guy is useless to me and pretty much the Islanders would be better with out him. He is on the second power play unit not the top unit. I believe the Tavares line has more power play goals then the second unit
