Why the hell is Matt Martin ALWAYS on the ice?!?!?!?!
- islanders1717

Exactly what I was thinking. Coach Crappy, why?

Are we killing some kind of 10 minute penalty I'm not aware of?
- potvin05

Certainly felt like it.

I thought the same thing...

The 4th line was getting trapped on the ice........especially near the end of the game.

Super happy we won but that third period was ridiculously bad for us. Have no idea how we won? Wtf was martin doing on the ice with 30 seconds left? I dont understand the thought process? We honestly had no buisness winning that game.

Josh Bailey has a broken hand. Out indefinitely. #Isles

He's been good lately, now the injury has to happen

I hate to pile on Crappy again but it's clear this team wins despite him. At least he called a timeout tonight.

What was up with the no call when Conacher got the stick slashed out of his hand on the 2-on-1? Ridiculous no call which was immediately followed by Kelly's goal. If Boston had tied this up I would have been livid.

The fourth line on the ice for the final minute was beyond stupid. That was a brutally bad decision. Like, you're fired for even thinking about it.

Strangely enough, he rarely uses them and still manages to break one. Hurry back grabovski.

According to capuano they spend little to no time in their own end. He must be watching some other game on the bench? They were pinned wuite a few times tonight. Dont get me wrong. Love the win but you arent getting into the playoffs playing like that. Ill take the two points and hope for a good 60 minutes against Dallas none the less.

Johnson is making a strong case for more games.
- JohnScammo

Sadly Halak looked like last November's Nabby the other night.
Johnson plays like Roloson when he was on his game.

I think Halak will pick it up. He may be pressing now.

Overall good game, nice crisp puck movement. They can get fancy later.

Worst officiated game of the year that I have watched. Two blatant calls against the Isles missed in critical situations(resulting in defensive give away and cancelling out odd man rush)........at least three offside calls against the B's that were not. In the past......we give up a goal with under 10 seconds left and end up loosing. Of course, happy we hold on........but the officials are the third team on the ice in every game and tonight they flat out blew!

There were a legitimate five non calls.

There was a cross check strait received while nowhere near the puck that went uncalled.lot of crap let go tonight. Thought we were back playing before obstruction.

Youre brutal . Hes been playing well.

Butchie: "I thought the 4th line was very good tonight."

Yes, they were better than usual (not saying much), but they should not have been out there in the final minute of the game.

I couldn't resist. He has played well so far.

sad for Bailey............he has been very good so far. Hope he heals fast and resumes where he left off!

We are losing players every night we play. Not good.

Fixed. They were very often the reason we were pinned in our own end. They should have been parked on the bench for the last five minutes at the very least.

MM is the worst forward (and skater) on the team. It makes no sense to me why he's playing in the last minutes of games.

Conacher needs to be moved to the third line.

KO- Tavares- Grabovski
Lee- Nelson- Strome
Kulemin-Nielsen-Conacher
MM-Cizikas-Clutterbuck

When is Grabner coming back???? Could have used him in those last few minutes (and on the PK)

I thought the fourth line had one good shift the entire night. I have no idea wtf capuano is thinking or what the fack but is talking about? If capuano keeps using them the way he has he will be looking for a job real soon.

I swear, it's to make sure we don't have to waive strait.

If Grabovski doesn't come back next game…. WE CAN CALL MCDONALD BACK UP!!!

Oooh ooooh ooohhhhhh



Can I be the first to re-hash the "fire the trainers because players get hurt" complaint? Can I? Can I?
