Ben Shelley: Pre-game Report: NYI vs DET

Nice write up Ben. The islanders who are cold need to warm up by the playoffs, so now would be a good time to start.

Hopefully Barzal can get back to form.

Huge win over the Habs. As long as Isles don't take Detroit lightly, should be able to secure another 2 points. I guessing 4-2 NYI.

Thanks for reading!

I wouldn’t say the Isles are cold at all. They just beat 2 pretty solid teams, playing exactly the way they were playing a month ago. This team thrives on low scoring games. If anything, I think they’re hitting their stride again.

I’m liking the blogs, keep them coming, Ben

Not sure. Shannon said he skipped practice yesterday too. He was a last minute scratch.

He skated the up the ice like poop. Should have been an easy 3-on-2, instead it turns into a 2-on-1 for them and a penalty on us.

Bailey getting into playoff form.

Sick stickhandling by Barzal. He’s looked good again today.

Pens down 2 - 0 to the Blues, but they're still in the first period.

Could end up being a really good day for the Islanders. Boston could spank Columbus, Lightning could spank Washington and hopefully the Blues will spank Pittsburgh.
