If the Islanders blow this they should be relegated to the AHL...

again, saving the job of their coach.
I'm happy for the win but what does it say when this team can beat the Pens, Bruins & Wings yet are last in the division?

The talent is there.
The coaching can't get it out of them on a regular basis.

Could it be any more obvious?

Am I the only one who is worried with a five minute power play and a two goal lead with three minutes left on the clock? They basically handed them the puck going in, four times in the last minute.....it's a good thing Boston is usually much better at defense than offense, and one of their better offensive players was the guy who got tossed...if that was Pittsburgh, we'd have been watching OT right now...

That's because what the coaching apparently tries to get out of them depends a whole lot on their goalie.

Two good comebacks in a row. Gotta enjoy the rare bursts of entertaining hockey we get with this year's team!

Happy New Year Islander fans! Another game I missed where they won. I will have to stop watching.

I'd agree with this....except that you can't HAVE TO score FIVE goals every night. That won't work. Sooner or later, they're going to have to figure out something in their own end of the ice.....maybe Snow can finally bring in a body....that isn't like a dead body...like Carkner....

If one of them was kencan.. I bet the rest were too

Lets also call it what it is. The last three isles goals never should of happened. Two bad bounces or good bounces for us and a softie. Also, nabby played excellent in the third. Made about 4 really good stops.

Cappy cant be brought back with anything short of a playoff run. These early season losing streaks and inconsistent annual starts are constantly causing this team to fail. Need a new voice to come in and put an end to it.
