Fuck you, dudes. I don't want to have to be the one to make the game thread. Islanders are on an 8-game winning streak against the Rangers...hell, have the Rangers ever won in Brooklyn?
Let's see if Quinn can fare better against our little brothers than Elaine did.
It's a POW-ER-PLAY GOAL!
Great play by Howden.

Basically just assuming a loss because we don't seem to be able to beat the fucking neckbeards at all lately regardless of where the game is.
I'll probably be onto SEA/GB by kickoff.
LGR!
There's a shocker. Unless a Rangers' fan's firm is offering corporate seats, it's tough to keep these guys interested in hockey.

About as tough as it is for your pathetic team to find a place to play because no one wants them.

By the time it’s all said and done, the Isles will have been nomads longer than the Jews.

Yep. We Wuz Robbed
Curious about this myself, actually
It's uncanny. I wonder if Valiquette or someone else has discussed it or has a theory about it. Seems like it leads to a goal too often when it happens.

Certainly as far as Ranger goalies over the past 50 years there's nobody even close - Hank is like 10x whomever would be #2. It is so much that I believe it has to be an intentional thing - that he lets go of the stick in certain situations (although frankly I can't figure out when or why that would be)
Yea, that's why a small part of me always considered the NHL just slightly removed from professional wrestling (esp in the Broad Street Bully days)
There you go.
Three deflected goals. Good to see you watching a game
Would be even better if Beauvillier or Leddy decided to chip in a little offense.
Metnut - I’m on the other side of this but wow!
I’ve been following on my phone stuck on my commute. It looks like the officiating has been questionable?
Isles feed has been choppy at times for me
How about playing better defense in front? Staal looks like fuckin road kill out there.
He should have been eliminated years ago.
You just lost to a team with a Fucking car sitting in first row.
The PDO regression coming for the islanders is going to be fantastic
Yes he scored with EA to make it 6-5. Clutterbuck then added final goal
Talent wise, the Islanders are ahead but I did like how the Rangers didn’t quit. I caught the end after an awful commute,

... was Hank pulled for Chytil's goal? I assume Islander's final goal was an empty netter.

Thanks Mike.

banged up tonight. They need to trust Trotz' system and play disciplined if they want to keep racking up points.

LOL! He sure delivered.
I didn’t love the effort tonight but I’ll take the two points. Biggest development tonight for NYI would be Beuvillier getting his confidence back.

Funny. I was there at that time as well. Thru 2000 and a move to 7 WTC.
Lol - I was there 94-95. Shitty commute from Hoboken, compared to where I was in WFC...
Not that Ladd was any good, but he could've been the serviceable 3rd option on line two. Looks like he's out for a while, so Beauvillier needs to play well if this team wants to legitimately contend for a playoff spot. Can't lean on Bailey-Barzal-Lee every night.
Great win. Was in section 215. Lot's of the expected back-and-forth chants going on. A few Rangers fans were going over-the-top with their exuberance after the 2-0 lead, and to Rangers' fans credit, the majority of their fans were policing them/yelling at them to shut up as it was very early in the game, still. Gave one of them a pat on the back for it, which he didn't appreciate. Probably should've waited for him to leave the urinal first. Oh, well.

That was you? Oh man, I was just trying to shake off.
Actually, as documented above, I was on the Staten Island Express Bus watching on MSG Go (or try to go).
I did a legitimate LOL reading Mike.

Must've been a fun game to be at. Crowd sounded lively.
Do you think you're going to make it to the 12/1 home opener at the Coliseum? I'll be up in NY for that. Probably the latest home opener I've seen for the Islanders. So many neutral site games in Brooklyn!

I really want to, but my girlfriend gets back from a week-long business trip in London that day.. going to be a tough sell, lol.
I live/work down here - it's improved a lot in just the ~2 years I've been here.
And no one believes you have a girlfriend, Mike.

I am at 7WTC now. I have been there for almost 10 years. They really are doing a nice job rebuilding WTC and the surrounding area. I hate WHY it happened but between WTC, The Oculus and Brookfield Place they are almost creating Columbus Circle downtown. They are building gorgeous residences (way beyond my means).

She goes to a different school, alright!?
In Canada, I'm guessing

I had a really bizarrely coincidental run-in with Metnut at the Islanders' tailgate in Raleigh. We briefly texted since we both were going. I didn't know anyone there, and ended up chatting with some dude who flew in with my GF and I from Jersey. And the whole time he's waiting for his friend to show up, and I've got my eye out for Metnut. Ended up spending a good hour shooting the shit with the guy until Metnut finally showed up.
Turns out we were both waiting for the same guy.
