Since when did Trotz become the Sully whisperer...just beat their *** for a change...get two ****ing points and stop cheering for yourself when you play the right way and lose...just win baby!
(I don’t know if I’ll be able to watch the boring hockey that is the foundation of Isles’ play...good god could it be less entertaining?...I’m going to try to watch tonight in the same way I eat oatmeal, but I may have to stop and head out for some bbq)

Did I miss the customary full and open disclosure on Letang Injury from the team?

I think he could be a game time decision or be done for the season, he is currently under evaluation.

Soon we will have the bipedal technology to ensure 82 game seasons for both Geno and Tanger...sooooon...

Too much to ask for a win tonight? For some reason the Isles really bring out the haterade in me.
No Letang, official

Which makes all those squandered games and points all the more troubling. Here's hoping we get puck luck and can string some wins together anyhow. If not I'll blame you.

Boston, TB, FLA, Vegas And EDM off the top of my head. And even if we didn't win all of them, we should have come away with more than one point.

I don’t know if I’d refer to any of those games as “squandered” tbh. We also got a point in EDM.

That is a glorious GDT @dogthateats . I think you gave Trotz too much of a neck though

Right, one point out of a possible ten. And I don't expect that we get all ten necessarily, but we sure as hell should have secured more than one.

Good thing that games in October and November don't matter, right?

Welp, here's to hoping Letang's only on the shelf for a couple of games as opposed to his near-perennial 15-20 games injured per season.
This team's going to have a Hell of a time staying afloat without Letang.

Meh. Shit happens, and at least they have added another mobile blueliner this season with Marino.
Just more chances for Marino to learn and grow on the top pair, while Riikola gets another chance to show what he’s got.
If they keep playing structured hockey they should hang in there fine.

I'm less worried about our tempo and ability to get offense going and more worried about our ability to stop the other guys from scoring.
It was like night and day after Tanger left the game against the Bruins. Felt like they went from pressuring while trying to tie it up to completely overwhelming us.

The question that should be asked is what is the over/under for point shots missing the net? Schultz will really have to be on his shooting game to make sure that stat doesnt drop.

Think they have an assbeating incoming tonight, unfortunately. See a rough night from L2, in particular. Don't know if they've completely shaken the stink of that Islanders debacle off of them from last year and no Letang is obviously not good.

Varlamov has been pretty meh against us for his career. Only 6 teams in the league he has a worse save percentage against.
Sooo he’ll probably have a shutout tonight
