When the Isles are sharp, their outlet decisions/passes are patient and crisp. The Flyers forecheck caused a lot of misfires. They've got to find their composure and be willing to be more methodical in their puck advancement

all over everyone. nobody goes by without feeling something from flyers. threw the isl off. wall support was missing and misfiring. baffling period.

Varly looking sharp

thankfully. pelech had a couple nice tie ups for saves at the open side

Not likely, no.

But hey, they only have to win a period now.

I expect a different period from the Islanders in the second. Also you have to give AV and his staff credit as they have found the match ups they like and it effective. They are home and get the last change.that said the Isles need to pick it up and get back to playing their game.

Despite his departure, Hextall laid the foundation for a solid Flyera team. When the Isles were starting their post-Pelech nosedive in the standings, Philly was playing some of the best hockey in the NHL. The Isles need more desperation in these board battles

He laid the hit the backhand pass was Uncle Leo no? Don’t think Ross got an assist did he?

Yeah, you're right. His hit just started the play.

Skates ok, let’s be real.

i was just thinking he has great jump start for a big guy. 240 must leave craters in the ice when accelrating like that

I love the guy. Guys take note when he’s on the ice and shy away a bit it. He might play 10 mins but he works.

LEEEEE!!!!
