NFT: Pittsburgh at Islanders, 8pm Game Thread

pganut : 11/30/2016 11:07 am
Yay. "Rivalry Night" on NBCSN. This should be a lopsided affair. Probably a good game to watch on mute with the omnipresent Yinzs knob-slobbering and the Isles suckitude rendering listening impossible.

Greiss gets the call in net again. Stop the presses: Ryan Strome has been pulled from the pressbox. He rejoins the lineup while Quine sits. As well, Scott Mayfield brings his size and grit tonight while Pelech gets the night off after the hard hit into the boards last game.

It could get late early out there, so my advice: drink heavily.

Some farm notes: Mathew Barzal is back to his point scoring ways, and has 11 points in the 8 games since rejoining Seattle in the WHL. He has also been named to Canada's WJC selection camp, so expect him to lead the way when the WJC starts after Christmas.

David Quenneville of Medicine Hat leads all WHL defenseman in goals and points, going 13-18-31 so far and leads d-men in PPG with 9. He has a 9-game point scoring streak. Tri-Cities Parker Wotherspoon also has impressed going 5-19-24 in 24 games.

In the KHL, Ilya Sorokin continues his excellent goaltending and is 16-5-4 with a 1.49GAA and .931 sv pctg.

Finally, in Bridgeport, the emerging Devon Toews tallied 4 assists last night, a club record for defensemen and continues to earn the praise of the coaching staff. As noted, he may well be the next d-man called up (after Pulock returns from conditioning) when needed. He is second on Bridgeport in scoring with 2-12-14 in 19gp.

Let's Go Islanders!

Yeah.. amazing how Prince can't buy a goal. He creates such huge opportunities and has the worst luck.
Love prince

But this pp needs to buy a goal at all costs

still don't understand why they don't launch from the point and get bodies in front of the net to tip/rebound.

what do I know, I'm just some schlub fan

And a great finish
Who is this team in blue  
pganut : 11/30/2016 9:50 pm : link
And what have they done with the Islanders?

Love Zeeker. Certainly always brings his game, but he seems to step up another notch against PIT.
Fuckin Hamonic!

Great 2nd  
Dave M : 11/30/2016 10:14 pm : link
The 3rd goal was poetic Justice because Let Letang should've gotten at minimum a minor boarding call that no one seemed to notice.

Not a great start to 3rd.
You know there's a storm coming for the Isles to weather  
pganut : 11/30/2016 10:15 pm : link
Hickey and Bailey get caught a step slow. But it was over when Hammer lost the race he should have won against Crosby.
What pressure by the Isles  
pganut : 11/30/2016 10:17 pm : link
But that's some horeshoe up the Pens' ass. Isles deserved a goal there.
Is it crazy to want zeeker

Why shake anything up? We can just sit strome again if we need to. What a fucking lost cause these guys are. GM and ownership are nowhere to be fucking found
You have to imagine

Honestly, ledecky and malkin are more clueless than wang at this point.

I THINK they probably told Snow "here's your rope". They'd have to step in eventually. Had to give him a chance.
Hickey!  
timintey : 11/30/2016 10:47 pm : link
Or Lee! Holy Shit!!!!!
Wow  
pganut : 11/30/2016 10:47 pm : link
Clutch goal. Great tip by Ders.
Ajhhhh!!!!

What a nice effort by Bailey and nice movement. Lee doing his thing finally.
Only goal cool lemon  
JayBinQueens : 11/30/2016 10:49 pm : link

I'll take it :)
Kuley!

Yeah, Kulie!

3 seconds between goals.
Hey guys  
JayBinQueens : 11/30/2016 10:50 pm : link
When was the last time we had a winning streak?


(I will add it's sad I'm this about 2 wins )
I'm thrilled  
feelflows : 11/30/2016 10:50 pm : link
but seriously.. they cannot blow 3 goal leads. It's like the damn prevent defense.
Also  
JayBinQueens : 11/30/2016 10:51 pm : link
Fuck the pens
..  
jrapps : 11/30/2016 10:51 pm : link
Kinda mirrored the knicks game. Both teams were up big only to let the other team tie it and then the good guys take the lead in the final minute. Felt like a playoff game. I really hate Pittsburgh.
The Isles are now 3-0  
KWhite2250 : 11/30/2016 10:52 pm : link
When I've been offered free tix and turned them down. Will tell my friends to offer them to each game until they lose 👍🏻
Lee  
feelflows : 11/30/2016 10:55 pm : link
Heard that I complained about him being afraid to camp in front of the net.

I take full credit. You're welcome.
Wow  
Mike in Long Beach : 12/1/2016 1:20 am : link
Lee and Kulemin with the two fastest goals in Islanders history.
