Hey look they decided to start playing.

Can’t wait till I never have to watch Hutton ever again.

He takes his sweet time making decisions. You could read a book waiting for him to shoot or pass

Demoralizing if you're Sorokin.

He's doing everything he can to give them a chance.

He clearly has no business being up at this level

Remember when I said we usually get a couple good games out of hickey when we call him up? I was wrong.

These guys definitely aren’t making the best of their opportunity

Guess they don’t want to call cross checks now.

This game could be 5-0.

Ugh.

He was tremendous

We’re going to lose anyway trotz should sit Barzal next game. (frank) it. Make a statement. Then sit Beau, Pageau, and whoever else wants to play the way they’ve been playing.

I just can't wait for Sunday to watch another depleted Islanders team fail to score.

I can’t even remember the last time I missed a game. Not sure how much more of this I can watch? The NHL is doing itself and us for that matter a disservice playing these games.

It’s the rules the entire nhl is following. It’s just stupid. At least part of the reason it’s terrible for us is we have zero young talent. These kids NHL careers are pretty much over minus Salo

Salo should be LD2 and Pulock should be back with Pelech when everyone is healthy. Chara/Greene can share LD3. Hopefully it won’t be too late for the season.

Here's how bad things are.......

There are only 3 NY Islanders (Nelson, Wahlstrom and Barzal) with more goals than Andrew Ladd has playing with Arizona this season.

On a positive note, we likely won’t be giving up the 2022 conditional picks 👍🏼

I have to agree here, between the 3 players mentioned above they had 61 minutes of ice and only 2 shots on net. Benching is needed from time to time.

Bottom line is these guys just aren’t playing. If they were out there working with this lineup and continued losing it would be no harm no foul. All three of Pageau, Beau, and Barzal flat out gave up on multiple plays last night. Stopped skating or completely lacked a second effort on plays that were routine for them in the past. I get their games have become exponentially harder with the lack of talent up and down the lineup but to me the effort more often then not just isn’t there. To me that’s completely unacceptable and I would hope Trotz is aligned with that.

What’s really insane is Sorokin’s .928 sv% right now. How he has been able to maintain that in 14 games is beyond me? Feel terrible for the kid he deserves a better fate and players that at least give a rats ass skating in front of him.
