Tonight's going to be a tough one. 6-0 on the back end of back to backs so that's going to end at some point, right?

This Islanders team is no joke...because they bought into a sound system and they see stability from the top down! As for tonight???.. the caps are looking to get back on track and quite frankly the Isles historically have never played well on "celebration nights" When they hung Smiths jersey buffalo kicked the snots out of them ..I think they lost when Trevor Linden had a Vancouver night too ..
This is a monumental game for them !

Going to be real tough to win this one tonight. A win tonight would really get people talking.

" Islanders team the mainstream media is still slow to comprehend..."

Only scheduled one time for national TV . . .NBCSN showing Chicago-NY instead of TB-Tor or Winnipeg-Nashville was a disgrace. NHL Network does an interview with Staple and asks about Devon Toews, while running JONATHAN'S highlights!!!

And the power rankings by ESPN, TSN, etc., continue to rank them like they are about ready to lose 5 straight!

And if they win the Stanley Cup Bettman will likely ask Mark Messier to come get the Cup . . .

I don’t know what to expect tonight. Is greiss or lehner in net? Who is going to protect barzal when Wilson makes a run at him?? So many question marks

Probably Greiss.

Wilson couldn't catch Barzal if he wanted to, plus he'll be too busy burying his face into whatever dirty diaper he's eating at the moment.

Lol I am just worried that he will take a run at someone. Greiss makes me nervous as well. Tough match up

So then Martin takes out either AO or Backstrom. Two can play that game

AO he is a tough customer that won’t be easy. He is no Sidney Crosby

My point is the Isles are not a team full of puss*es. They'll be fine if Wilson starts running around like an idiot

Let us stick to that unsung hero/underdog card. Until this team wins a cup we'll always play 15th fiddle to everyone else in the league. This team knows how to play from that standpoint. Lets just keep sticking it to everyone else.

I'm gonna take a flyer on Lehner. This is a big game and he didn't get that much work last night.
