Ben Shelley: Notes from ECF Game 1: Islanders vs. Lightning

yikes...

They got their asses beat. Hopefully they are good and mad about it. I expect a much different game tomorrow.

In Trotz we trust.

They lost 8-3 to the Flyers in Game 2 of the 1980 Finals and we all know how that turned out.

100% and if they don’t show us a different game at least we have alcohol.

Have to think so. I'm not sure how Sorokin would react to having to start in Bridge?

Would you be comfortable with him starting the season with the Isles?

From the Last blog. I'm comfortable with Sorokin staying the season with the Isles especially If Sorokin is the real deal and the way Barry coaches defense. I would not be comfortable with Sorkin starting in the NHL under Cappy and Weight.

I'm strangely at peace with this series.

Amen, brother. Amen.

And you were strangely absent last might in the 8-2 drubbing. What say you?

Couldn’t catch the game last night. What were your impressions of Greiss and Varlamov?

Sorry about that. Communications went down at my site yesterday. No wifi, phone or radio. Didn’t even have cell service with my booster being NFG.

That’s right Jimmy. Honestly I think if Nelly scores on one his 3 or 4 early chances that game would not have been nearly as bad.

Yeah, well it seems like we need you in virtual attendance if we are to have any success, **based on past performance of course. So I’m hoping you’ll clear your schedule Wednesday, and every other day thereafter, until the series is complete. Which, based on past performance, should be four more games. Thank you.



**past performance does not guarantee future results.

I expected a loss. Not that bad though. This is going to be a very difficult series and I will be very surprised if the Isles win.

He is. Even years ago when we threatened to break into his home to steal the pin Ledecky gave him. He should change his avatar to the yin yang symbol.

Getting past the 2nd round might have been my Cup?

I can guarantee Wednesday. Friday is up in the air though, as my site is due to get shutdown then. I’m hopeful though.

I'm having trouble even adding another Avatar. If I figure it out maybe Asia?

Where are your priorities!

I’m determined to bring him to our level. Just need to find a seam in his bagua...

Helicopters are fickle machines. I’m forced to honour their schedule.

I’m hopeful the players feel disrespected by the NHL for fuking them with not getting an extra day after the Flyers series and pissed at the Bolts for the ass kicking. Anything to motivate them. It’s funny they gave the players two days when a criminal was shot by a police office but they couldn’t get an extra day with travel and time zone change following a 7 game series.

Last night was the perfect storm for an Isles loss for sure.
