I agree no reason to change the line up
Islanders were the better team but didn’t get the W.
Time to move on and get ready for game 7.

It's going to be a wild ride. Tonight is a perfect example of why I'm not overly confident. They are outplaying their opponent but continue to allow them to survive. Both goals 4 and 5 were flukey IMO,...yet here we are. Once up 3 games to 1. Three OT opportunities, three losses. Now it's even money. I hope this Sorokin kid comes as billed next year, because while Varly has been 'ok', we could really use 'stellar'

Eberle had a terrible game. Terrrrrible.

He can’t get the puck on net. Period.

I am not an Eberle fan, at all, but what did he do wrong tonight ? And if you say that he missed the net...well, he was in position to actually shoot....who else did ?
Ps....I hate Eberle too lol

I agree they were the better team tonight but everyone of the flyers goals were off lazy plays tonight. Not the usual focus this team has. Also, my post was more in reference to gifting the flyers two goals early in this one and playing like listless zombies except for the third in the two games prior. That’s not how you close a series out. Have to put your foot on the other teams throat. They didn’t do that and here we are. They lose this series it’s on them.

Of course on no one else but them.
They need to shake it off and come out and play the same way. That’s what winning teams do in the POs.

I need to order a new remote from directv😡

So this was Varlamov fault? Come on Sorokin hasn’t made an NHL save yet. Your better than that poophead.

He missed the net multiple times. Three of which were point blank opportunities. He also carelessly flipped a puck over the glass putting us on the pk.
He's struggling right now. Hopefully he gets a chance to do something positive

Just need to play like they did tonight and the odds are strongly in their favor. Keep pumping shots and outshooting Philly and they will win. Crazy with all the shots they had how many were high and wide. Just hit the net and pick up some garbage. Sad thing is the Isles can probably hang with Tampa but Philly will get swept if they make it. Just the way it goes sometimes.

Family has to understand. These have been brutal losses. 3 OT's loses does not happen and it's the 1st time Philly did it.

Might want to check if the d man didn’t get his stick on a couple of those.

Baahaahaa !!! I know you're not new to the Islanders, but did you expect anything else ?
Every loss is a learning example 😬

Barry said we'll see regarding Varly. I go to Greiss. Isles do not have a clear 1A. He was very sharp last game and anyone that can win a series playing for Cappy has my trust.

It’s hard and it hurts cdn. I think they deserved better but the scoreboard said otherwise.

Yep! Isles use both goalies so it would not be a shock. I would be worried about rust if Greiss did not play but he played and played very well and it's not a back to back situation.

If he had hit the net even once tonight....
Took a bad penalty at the end of the 1st OT. A couple of bad passes. Right now he’s being played up by his line mates.

I wouldn’t change the lineup at all. Besides the goalie.

This team has to slay this 2nd round dragon and Eberle is the player that needs to do it most. If these players have to jump in front of the puck with their face to block a shot so be it. Get it done now no excuses or rip this team up.
