I don't know who got through to Bouchard, but he has been playing a way better 2-way game.

Nurse has settled down, but I think Eckholm has been the key reason. He is just so steady.

An unreal heater… they were never as bad as they showed earlier in the year but at the same time they’re not as good as they are now.

This gets them back into the playoffs but there are questions as well.

Some long streaks going. The Jets have gone 34 games straight allowing 3 goals or less (including OT). Also the Jets have gone 22 games straight allowing 2 goals or less in regulation (only once allowing a 3rd goal in OT).

Gotta love the passion, I’ll bet the players end up loving him as a coach…….

Going to take a bit of time to get used to Roy donning the Islanders logo and colours. As unexpected a landing spot for him if I were given a few guesses as to his next destination in the NHL.

This whole season has been full of weird streaks. The Kraken winning 8 or 9 in a row, the Oilers streak, the Jets, Florida winning 8 in a row. And then there are San Jose's losing streaks....

LA is also fresh off an extended winless streak. 0-4-4 before finally winning. 2-6-4 in the last 12

So what you’re saying is the Leafs will score 4 against them but lose 5-4?

I'd like to see Boston beat up the Jets and take them down a peg before we have our back to back with them. It's also televised and I prolined Boston so there's that. Should be a good game both teams have insane records.

I'd like to see us beat up the Jets and take them down a peg, but that seems like a tall order given the up and down last 10-14 days.

 

[Jojalu]

Can't remember a year where more multiple goal leads have been squandered.

Seems like a daily event

 

[Blanka]

I think Amber needs to be the full-time SN panel host. He's just better than anyone else and it's not even close.

 

[Darcy Tucker]

NJ up 3-1 on Vegas then Vegas up 5-3 on NJ now it's 5-5.

Winnipeg might keep the low goal streak going but lose both goalies are lights out watching this game.

Short handed goal DeBrusk 3-1 Boston. Streak over for Jets.

Agreed. Thank goodness this generation of fans wasn't watching games in the dead puck era, where a one goal lead pretty much was the end of the game. It would be interesting to see what the stats are this year for team's who score first. It used to be almost a guaranteed win when a team scored first, but I'm guessing that isn't the case anymore.

4-1 Bruins.

5 straight wins for them.

 

[Nineteen67]

Another goalie hug night.

 

[HolyCrap]

Bruins are really at a different level. Friggin sucks but gotta respect it

 

[BallardEra]

Florida wins tonight 4-1 as well.

 

[Dekes For Days]

Bad night for us on the scoreboard so far. Florida, Boston, and NJ wins.

 

[Buds17]

Florida wins tonight 4-1 as well.

Catching them would certainly be the dream. The main priority for now though seems to be in creating separation from DET and TBL.
