I can only hope the Islanders are good and embarrassed.

Whelp, this goes one of two ways here. Either they are so defeated and demoralized they become toast, or they handle it like pros and play their game on Long Island. I think Hockeyislife will agree with me when I say, Barry will have these boys ready to play. Throw this one in the can and play your game.

Lol

He's just saying that stuff to motivate Barry because he know's the first thing he does after a tough game is login to HBuzz...

He needs to fire himself into the sun

Washington is my most hated team in the league and Trotz was part of that disgusting goon squad I can never like him. Even if they win the cup I will hate him.

My guess is the Isles win game six, and my BP is through the roof in game seven.

That is true. I learned that from 7.

I still feel good about game 6. This feels like a 7 game series.

Me too. The Isles aren't losing yet.

I'm there with you.

They MUST start fast. If we go down a couple of goals early after a loss like this, the wheels could come off again. Trust the system and do your job. Tonight, they played like they could do neither. That doesn't happen often with this team.

When Ben did his poll before the start of the series, I predicted the Isles would win in 7. I stand by that.

Really hope so John. Would be brutal to lose to this team again even if they are elite. I'm still upset they lost when DP was in goal back in 2003.

If he gets suspended for that the league is a complete joke. Besides all the Wilson crap, how many Unpenalized hits like that from the Bruins in the last round?

Don't forget what Bettman's Golden Shower boys get away with, Marchpoop cuts open Perry face with a wild swing of his stick & nothing happened to him not even a fine

Love the positivity

No quitting now. This team has shown the last few years you cannot count them out and they earned the fans to have some belief in them.

St. Louis with the OT series-winning goal. Remember it well. By the way, it was 2004.

I would love to know what is ailing Pageau. He looks slow and lost. I wouldn't be shocked if it were a hip or groin issue. I lean towards 'hip' with how Tampa has targeted him. The constant crosschecks etc suggest they have an idea that he might have ssues there

Two in a row against PO Tampa won't be easy. They don't lose back to back as you heard 1000 times tonight

Hopefully they see it differently than Buchnevich on Mantha which while it was a regular season game got a 1 game suspension.

I didn't find Barzal's crosscheck as that terrible. Not sure what the fuss is all about. Two minute penalty. Move on.

Good catch. I was hoping I forgot it completely but no chance.

Rutta stayed down for forever, then they must have told him between periods, to take the rest of the game off.

Next, you can expect them to announce that he's "day-to-day"...

Man barzals stick came up right under his chin and throat I think he gets a game which (frank)ing sucks
