Wow awful game. Shocked they got the win, but 2 pts is 2 pts. Thank you Greiss

I can't believe I sat through that whole game. Ugly.

Why does Cappy put out JT for that last draw?

Ugly game but I agree Greiss won it.

This guy should be our number 1 righ now. While Halak has played well he has had some bad games. This guy has been lights out.

While it was only one game, I think the prince is Bridgeport bound. He doesn't seem to have any wow factor.
You mean to tell me a player on 3rd line on Ott is a 1sr liner on isles. I think it was nice thing to do and give him a chance.

I'm still waiting for pulock to hammer one home. He didn't get much of a chance as our 1st unit was too busy making 750 passes to each other with no shots on net

I don't get it. Why doesn't everyone have a problem with jt taken last draw?

Hey I put my vote in for nystrrom award. If you ask me cizikas wins this by a mile this year. Sorry Matty Martin.

I think this pulock experiment was nice but i think its time for him to go back down. 2 games 0 points. Come on time to admit he is a bust.

Come on dont rip into prince after one night playing protected minutes but praise pulock for his play. Both of them still need to get comfortable being here


( yes the top part is sarcasm)

He is their best faceoff man this season. There was 3 seconds left. If you win the draw, the games over.

Cappy is so hated that even when he makes logical moves they're pooped on.

I missed most of the game as I fell asleep.......how'd the Prince of the isles look on JTs line?

There were 5 goals last night and essentially all 5 were scored by a Canuck.

Because he is far and away the team's best faceoff man at 55%FOW.

Only Kulemin is better and he's taken 9 total faceoffs compared to Tavares' 1034.

After watching the highlights of the game, good on Hamonic and Martin for sticking up for their teamates. Greiss made some big saves too.

My first reaction was also "wtf are they doing?" until I looked at the stats and realized that he's been head-and-shoulders above every other centerman. He's improved a lot in that area. He was usually a sub-50% guy on the draw.

The good news is the isles goaltending has been the best its been for some time. They are strong between the pipes and as we know that huge in the playoffs.

And they're damn good at holding a lead in the third. Those are words I wasn't sure I was ever going to utter in my lifetime.

No mistake level% today guys.

Didnt know that in all honesty and if he weren't out there with a minute/minute half out there up by a goal on a consistent basis I doubt it would even be a topic. With three seconds left it makes sense with his faceoff %. With that said I wouldnt want him out there in the other situations I mentioned.

team was sloppy as hell last night, bad passes, bad turnovers, refusing to shoot the puck for 40 minutes, bad second goal against.

they had no business winning that game and I'm shocked they did, but if they play like that next game it's not going to end well.

Nobody is unhappy they won but thats the issue.

When did you guys get Price, and isn't he injured?

I didn't think he was out there prior to that faceoff? Was he?

I can't remember.

Nelson may have played the most obnoxiously bad game of his entire career.
