GDT: New Jersey Devils vs. New York Islanders

[SteveCangialosi123]

All of the luck from last game evened out and then some.

It seems like the hit reminded the Isles they have nothing to play for and don’t need to get hurt. I expected more fire from them.

26 minutes of game time still left.

Markstrom really can't stop anything yet again.

Post is doing work.

Did he even face a shot on that 5 minute PP? They said one, I think it might have been none.

Complaining about Markstrom in a 0-0 game is a choice

 

[Killing Joke]

We only have 2 shots this period lol.

Sure but no physical play against NJ and no zip on that PP. What are they waiting for?

 

[VoidCreature]

If we beat the Canes it will be because of our special teams

 

[My3Sons]

Almost a wrap around

 

[Bleedred]

How does he manage to keep finding jobs?

Well, his best friend Kirk Muller gave him an assistant job upon being hired as head coach of the Canes, not quite a year after his head coaching stint here.

Then he was here doing the job Bryce has now on TV for a few years, before another buddy Rick Tocchet gave him an assistant job in Arizona.

He was an assistant for San Jose (where he played for a minute almost 25 years earlier) for one year after one of their assistants opted not to be vaccinated at the last minute. He was a very late offseason hire that year,

Only lasted one year there and Lou predictably picked him up. I actually thought Lou would pick him up as soon as he lost his job in Arizona, but he didn't.

I hope they can flip a switch against the Canes because this is bad....Should be crushing this team...

He's been getting beaten on clean shots from far out and leaky ones, and was horrific last game and mostly nonstop since he returned.

He deserves criticism. This game certainly isn't 0-0 because of him. That's for damn sure.

Why should we be selling out for a game that doesnt matter?

We should be scoring a goal or so, but we're lucky not to be down at least 1-0, due to 3 posts on Markstrom, two of them would have been bad goals.

Keefe just said their priority is to get out of the game healthy.

Mercer really is god awful.

Only 12 shots through 2 against a horrible Islanders team.

 

[pulkit1989]

Man there is like 0 offense. Major area where work is needed this offseason

 

[SJinNewJersey]

We only have 2 shots this period lol.

We actually only have 3 shots since the 5 minute mark in the 1st period.

 

[Bleedred]

For what it's worth, we're down Noesen, who is kind of a big deal with who we're icing.

Nemec in for Casey is a clear downgrade and now Cotter is gone for the game, which means more icetime for guys that wouldn't have played a whole lot.

So I'm not surprised we aren't blowing them out.

I love that Andrew Gross is still rocking his old profile pic.

And we still have the shots advantage

Seems pretty low event (I’m not watching) and I’m not surprised. I’m not sure why anyone else is either.

I feel for the paying audience of course

 

[My3Sons]

So why is it that the Isles hit the stick and not that Markstrom actually made a save there?

 

[Whaddagoal]

Nice going guys

Too bad they didn’t get out of the game without a pending suspension for one of the village idiots
