Amazing how minds work.

We're losing 2-0. The entire team is playing like poop and the first thing fans do is take out their frustrations on Jody Shelley. Our PP is creating more opportunities for the the Islanders PK then they are for themselves to score, in this case we have 1 more man on the ice then they do.

It's pathetic that we're not ragging on the entire team right now.

I think Jagr drifted off to the side of the net and left the 2nd guy through wide open.

It was a nice play by Okposo driving Coburn through the crease to open things up.

Brutal by Jagr there. There are mistakes, and then there is a lack of effort. That was a lack of effort on his part defensively.

Don't know. Why would you troll a message board of a team you claim to root for?

Two goals is not an impossibility so a strong arsed third would be nice.

Too bad DiPietro's done for the season.

I'd like their chances a lot better!

Two goal deficits are only an impossibility in Winter Classics.

Apparently Jody Shelley's magic powers to keep any of his teammates from getting hit, and to stop Claude Giroux from fighting, is on the fritz. Maybe he can have the Medical staff look at it in between periods.

Please stop with these comments. That was a spontaneous fight on the ice. Shelley has zero to do with it.
- MJL


That was a combination of Giroux being frustrated and attempting to fire up his team. It followed another one of Shelleys classic irrelevant shifts.

C'mon, I know you know better. That's frustration and Giroux's competitiveness there. Nothing to do with Shelley.
- MJL


I do. But it's frustrating to see him have as many fights as Briere and Giroux at this point of the season.

Is that totally his fault? No. But it does kind of show that the role of enforcer is dying fast.

The first part I agree with. It has zero to do with Shelley. Don't see a reason for the comment.

Maybe we're just frustrated with the entire team and making jokes about Shelley, rather than acting like idiot trolls and shredding the rest of the team, who certainly deserve the barbs.

Look for Shelley to bring popcorn to Giroux while G is sitting after his fighting major
