NFT: Islanders - Penguins 7pm Game Thread

pganut : 11/21/2014 3:45 pm
Isles begin a home-and-home with the Yinztown Crying Marios tonight. Ahrn City no doubt flowing at The Igloo Consol.

As the early crew noted, Chad Johnson in for Halak, taking on the flower. Tomorrow will feature Halak against Greiss.

While Grabner did make the trip, he'll be held out tonight.

Forward lines:
Nelson - Tavares - Kulemin
Grabovski - Nielsen - Okposo (FNGO part deux, if you will)
Lee - Strome - Bailey
Martin - Cizikas - Clutterbuck

D-pairs: Leddy-Boychuk, Hamonic-CDH, Hickey-Viz

Programming note to you folks in the Tri-State area: tonight's game will be seen on MSG given the postponement of the game between the other two New York teams in the place where all the snow is.

Link below to a nice article on how Bridgeport is off to a great start in the AHL, mirroring the parent club's early-season success.

Let's beat the snot out of these smelly pirate hookers...

Look in --
look the storm in the eye
Look out --
to the sea and the sky
Look around --
at the sight and the sound

Now that is how you start a game.

How the hell is that not a penalty.
WTF  
Mike in NY : 11/21/2014 7:37 pm : link
Is Johnson doing?
That was pathetic  
BlueHurricane : 11/21/2014 7:37 pm : link
Ocho way to far to the side of the net.
Johnson is not good  
Dave M : 11/21/2014 7:37 pm : link
Not sure if he finishes the season as the backup.

If Poulin keeps it up at Bridgeport it is very tempting
That was a very soft goal  
The 12th Man : 11/21/2014 7:40 pm : link
Johnson has to have that goal
Bailey still sucks  
The 12th Man : 11/21/2014 7:42 pm : link
just kidding:). Would have been nice if he could have put that one in the net.
That Bailey miss may well hurt later  
pganut : 11/21/2014 7:54 pm : link
But other than the collective brain fart from not just CJ, but CDH and Martin kicking it into our own net, it looks like we were pushing their shit in all period. Gotta keep it up; I have no doubt the Yinz will come out with some more jump. Need to be ready to counter.
bailey  
Fish : 11/21/2014 7:57 pm : link
Did have 2 gaffes. Cdh was bad as well.
Lee's toughness on the puck  
Mike in NY : 11/21/2014 8:06 pm : link
Causes that goal
LEDS!  
pganut : 11/21/2014 8:06 pm : link
Keep pouring it on!
very nice  
The 12th Man : 11/21/2014 8:08 pm : link
there by Lee to set that up. That should have been a cross check. Before the fight.
3pts for  
Fish : 11/21/2014 8:09 pm : link
Strome
12th man  
pganut : 11/21/2014 8:12 pm : link
Agree. In fact, the second one was committed as the ref stared at it. No call. Because...Islanders.
Johnson fucking sucks  
BlueHurricane : 11/21/2014 8:14 pm : link
.
Johnson  
pganut : 11/21/2014 8:14 pm : link
Doesn't wast us to win this game easily. Doing his best to keep the Pens in it.
johnson  
Fish : 11/21/2014 8:15 pm : link
Is weak

Its amazing there is no line matching from Isles so far this year. Things going well bit down road it will have to be addressed

It would have been worse had we hired Bylsma
Who is waiting for the inevitable bad/inexplicable penalty call against us  
pganut : 11/21/2014 8:20 pm : link
To let the Pens right back in this? Because you know it's coming. Probably with about 3 mins left in the 3rd.

Of course after they overlooked the obvious interference Maata should have been called for against Martin, the 2 cross checks from Bortuzzo, etc...
or the Crosby trip on cdh  
Dave M : 11/21/2014 8:33 pm : link
That aside the penguins have taken over this game.
Crosby is a bitch  
pganut : 11/21/2014 8:36 pm : link
See that cross check on Brock after the face off there?

I wouldn't say the Pens have taken over. Isles look to be less wide open, tightening up because they know they have to compensate for Johnson's inconsistency. Attacking less, defending more. Which always comes back to bite us.
Just once I would like to see someone  
BlueHurricane : 11/21/2014 8:59 pm : link
Knock Malkin the hell out. Such a cheap chippy douche
I knew that was going to happen
