GDT: GDT #10 Carolina Hurricanes vs New York Islanders | Hockey Fights Cancer Night | November 4th | 7:30 PM | F/4-3 OTL

[13th Floor]

So many lamely wristed clearing attempts.

 

[SI90]

Being a veteran player of so many NHL games is amazing. Matt Martin doesn’t have the wheels or the moves or the skills but he knows exactly where to be and where to go with the puck when he has it.

Part of the reason I really wanted a vet #6 defensman ala Andy Greene when we had him.

 

[13th Floor]

Holmstrom feeling it.

 

[Bones45]

Interesting game.

 

[PJGooch]

Great. We've all seen this movie before.

 

[IslesCLT]

Holmy is one of our best forwards tonight

 

[leeroggy]

Aho having his best game when asked to step up to Pelech’s spot
Holmstrom would not make that last move and shot last year

 

[SI90]

Dobson realizing he’s the man

 

[leeroggy]

Holmstrom is starting to remind me of Pat Flatley

 

[IslandersGER]

Dobson realizing he’s the man

he just found something in his pants?

 

[SI90]

Don’t sit back in the 3rd. Play the same game

 

[miscs75]

You mean you don’t miss the Capuano blown 3 goal leads from lack of battle level?

 

[Tres Peleches]

You know you’re an Islanders fan when you don’t feel good about a 3-goal lead… even less so a 2

 

[xECK29x]

Don’t sit back in the 3rd. Play the same game

Their biggest issue, don’t turtle

 

[Galician Islanders]

You know you’re an Islanders fan when you don’t feel good about a 3-goal lead… even less so a 2

So I must be a real fan...
Loving the young swedish tonight ! Barzal being Barzal is so good... On to the 3rd !

No it's the more recent let the opponent take a barrage of open shots until enough of them deflect off something to tie the game.

That’s how Trotz played it in the
Defense zone when protecting the lead
Plenty of shots but from the outside and wider angles

This is the wrong type of opponent for Martin. Give him a night off and start Gauthier against fast teams.

I was talking strictly about being a veteran and just having so much experience and making the right decisions

 

[MJF]

Svech got too cute and had his pocket pucked

 

[SI90]

Canes pushing hard

 

[steveat]

clear the damn zone!!

 

[Big L]

My God, clear the f’ing zone

This is the wrong type of opponent for Martin. Give him a night off and start Gauthier against fast teams.

No.

 

[Galician Islanders]

Barzal is having a really good game tonight.

 

[13th Floor]

A Christie Brinkley sighting? Night is complete.
