Martin, kinda half-assed his pressure up top on that

Cal lost his point man who scored

Kucherov totally left his feet on that check on Mayfield.

I hate that (frank).

Forgot that Dal Colle was on your team. I remember he was a high draft pick, what's the reason he never panned out?

Loose puck near Martin who could have easily taken one stride and contested but didn't

Need to get out of this period 1-1. We are not even close to playing our game. Trotz needs to read the riot act. I would love to see some physical play from us and sustained ozone pressure.

We're not real good at developing forward talent

Can’t leave your check like that. Don’t give a (frank) what happened before that

Gotta have an eye for talent at the draft I guess. Trotz has been great w D development. Maybe he needs to hire an offensive developer.

Lee, Nelson, Beau, Barzal, Casey, MM, Bailey, MDC .

8 forwards all drafted and developed by the Islanders, I mean that’s not too bad.

Relax homie. I’m talking younger guys that are on the cusp. MDC, Bellows, wahlstrom, etc that are under Trotz development now. Most of those are pre trotz. He taken Pelech, Mayfield and Towea to the next level. Barzal and Beau are not same category as aforementioned as far as I’m concerned. He hasn’t done a lot with forwards IMO.

Those Guys may never see the NHL. Happens in every franchise.
The forwards have all grown under Trotz’s coachIng.
Saying That they haven’t is false. They have all grown and become better 2 way players since he came. Just my opinion.

Good point. He’s definitely elevated Barzal
Two way game. Maybe MDC and bellow just suck.

C'mon guys, all we need is one to change this game!

MDC was picked 5th overall.

That’s a total miss. Not as bad as griffin Rheinhart but a miss for sure

Pelech!!!

Pelech!
