They were better the last 5 minutes less turn overs trying to clear the puck, tampa is playing aggressive hopefully we can catch them and get one going the other way

They always have someone hanging looking for the home run pass.

Isles transition can be deadly!

They were better, but the SOGs tell the story for the overall period. Tampa 15 - Isles 5. As others have said, I'm happy to get through that period 0 - 0. Hopefully, the Isles step it up physically in the 2nd.

Hit, hit, hit. Then hit some more.

You only need 2 shots to make it 2-1 ! Lot's of time left

Tampa is getting to every loose puck and winning all the battles and that's not a good sign

They seem to be allergic to hitting. They really want to let Tampa play their game so far. Only time this team is successful is when they’re playing the body. Then they play like this.

Have to survive

Nope. They need to start outworking Tampa or they're gonna run out of time.

Palmieri had a terrible series on that goal. Predictably throws the puck along the boards for the turnover, then becomes the third man over rather than pick up the trailer

(frank)ing Leddy.

Isles look real slow. Time for Palms on the 1sr line.

More like Palms shot into the sun after tonight and the last game.

Gotta find a way to get pressure on the other zone they are trapped most of the shift and can just get off the ice
