Ben Shelley: Islanders pick up 4-1 win over Bruins

Cpt. For HOF

Bellows had 5 shots, 5 hits and assist looks like he wants a spot.

Isles out shot, out hit and out blocked shot the B’s. -almost sounds like a coach Tortorella team?

If the boys can pick up a win tomorrow against the Habs...That my friends is called a winning streak.

Playoffs bound.

I’d love for the isles to have a shot at Slafkovsky. The 17 year old Slovak had 8 points in the Olympics…all goals. He had two today in their 4-0 win over Sweden for the Bronze. Exactly what the isles need in a player.

Nope... That is not in the cards.

They will win just enough for pride and to screw themselves out of a good draft pick.

Yup. Unfortunately when we win we lose.

Right. He’d have to go back to the minors to learn how to play defense. Nevermind.

Tage Thompson with a hat trick last night. I recall people wanted him instead of Bellows in the draft.

If you look at the current lineup, you know changes need to be made. The question is who stays and who goes. It is easy to pick apart the bottom six. The real question is the top six.

Barzal, Lee, Palmieri (contract) Nelson, Bellows, Wahlstrom, Bailey, AB

If you are Lou what do you honestly do? Do you let it ride and say do to unusual circumstances the road trip and covid did not allow this team to fully come together? Or do you start pealing apart the onion to see what you actually have.

The other question is do the Islanders have what it will take to land that premier RW and Center? I say center because it may benefit Barzal's game moving him to wing.

Fire Barry and Can Lou.

Fire Lou can Barry.

That didn't look cheap to me. I wonder what Martin was upset about.

Can someone get St. Louis a stool...He looks like a little kid behind the bench.

Wow.

Fire Lou can Barry.

Pelech with an unbelievably lazy turnover and blammo.
