Cory Schneider recalled from Bridgeport.

Guess Varly didn’t just poop his pants.

The next question is...Does he see action with the back to back Rags and Cats? If so... which is the lesser of the two evils?

I would say the Cats considering the Rags are on a hot streak.

Tough week coming up, Sorokin will get the Monday & Wednesday.
Let’s get the power play running!

He may have poop himself in addition to pulling his groin.

We need Sorokin to get back to playing the way he was in November.

Isles are skating well to start the game.

Pretty classy move by Makar

Good way to build a good rep with the refs for when you really need the benefit of the doubt

I can't remember seeing a player do that before.

Seems they could have called goalie interference too there

Colorado's pp does a great job forcing the Isles box to shrink tighter, thus allowing them to get off hard shots much closer in.

Safe to say Sorokin’s slump is done. They get nothing without him tonight.

One point well-earned. Time for another....

He's been solid tonight.

Pretty magnificent setup by Barzy to Beau there but he elected not to shoot. Then a very odd decision by Parise to force a bad angle shot that resulted in an oddman rush the other way

Lol. What the hell were we doing there?

I think their 3 on 3 play needs a little practice.

At least they got one point.

Beauvillier going to Beauvillier.

JFC Beau....(didn't like Barzy's move either)

Shocked they gave Holmstrom the first slot

It was a nice idea but he completely flubbed it

More evidence that they lack guys with finishing ability. Where's Jeff Tambellini when you need him?
