Different angles make it look different. I don't get what the league did though. They reviewed the hit and said no penalty. Then, the next day, they call Tsyplakov in for a hearing. SMH. That makes no sense. Thanks for the comment, MapleTreeatdawn. LGI

Enough is enough! I’m so sick of this ownership being complacent with subpar play. How many more points do we need to be back? Embarrassing efforts every single week. Lou is outclassed and is stuck in 2001, when will this nightmare end?
I don't think it ends until they move on from Lou. Ultimately, that's up to ownership. Changes are past due on this roster. Thanks for the comment, CaseOhsUnwashedDrawls. LGI
That's already happened. He won't be turning this team around. What they are waiting for at this point is beyond me. Lou is a dead man walking at this job. If he 's not, he should be. There is no reason to allow him to make more decisions for this team. Thanks for the comment, Steven. LGI.
Isles will finish the season as the cellar dweller champions of the Eastern Conference. Time for the management to take their licks by getting younger, and faster. Build around ,13,14,28,10,7,36, and keep 53. It's time to plan Spring cleaning in January. On a side note when everybody was having a serious man crush on Dobson, I was saying he's overated and that our best defenseman was #2. Thank goodness the Isles didn't throw the kitchen sink at him.
I still think Lou will look to sign Dobson to an extension this offsason if he's still the GM. Not sure I would keep 53 at this point if I could get something in return at the deadline, but I agree with the other guys to build around. Thanks for the comment, spanky9753. LGI
When is the last time you saw the Isles that angry about a hit done to one of their players? They don't care about each other. These are not brave boys.
They don't do a good enough job of sticking up for each other and that's not a good sign. I think it's reflected in their record. Thanks for the comment, FREEDOMFUNADVENTURE. LGI
Lou's a big part of the problem with those crazy contracts. Not news of course. But Roy hasn't done a good job and I've said so before. Roy didn't do that good of a job in Colorado. So, why is it a surprise that he's not getting the most out the team. Roy is an all-time goalie, but that doesn't guarantee success as a coach or as an executive.
@@MichaelSr-sp5pw Nonsense. Their best player this year is Anders Lee and he's 34. They have some young players and the problems they have involve discipline, not age. Trotz was a great coach for the Islanders because he was tough and they played disciplined hockey. Lamber sucked.
I don't know what coach could make this roster a success. It's tough to fairly evaluate Roy. The new GM (hopefully) will decide who the next coach will be. Thanks for the comment, MrAschiff. LGI.
They were disciplined under Trotz. They have not been that disciplined since. Age is a factor with this roster, I think. Regardless of whether it's age or chemistry or something else, the way this team is put together is very flawed and changes need to be made. Thanks for the comments, MrAschiff. LGI
Agree, Tsyplakov just should have dropped the gloves. I looked at the hit over and over. He got all shoulder. His head flopped into Max’s shoulder because he never saw it coming. I think it was the right call. But like you say, I don’t think this is over. I’ll be watching next Fridays game..
LOL. That's a classic. They could use it. I can add "Playing Hockey the Professional Way" by Rod Gilbert and Brad Park...lol. Thanks for the comment, Richard-03g2d. LGI
@@LockedOnIslanders lets give them both books. with both books, offense is covered (gilbert and p espo), defense is covered (park), and goaltending is covered (t espo). isles will be the best fundamental team in the league.
Good 🌄, Gil, how are you? I'm not happy. The one 🕐 I counted on the Islanders to win a game, especially on their own division, not to mention against a team that hasn't won too many games on LI on the last 50 years, they fell thru. After a sound 1st period, they just cracked again. Dennis Chulowski 3 minor penalties. JG Pageou is coming back from being hurt, Anthony DuClair's isn't 100% by his own admission. If they want a winning homestand, they've got to catch 🔥, AND FAST, they need to get ticked off, AND STAY THAT WAY. I've said it before, I'll say it again, THE HIGHER UPS NEED TO GIVE LOU LAMORIELLO A NICE SEVERANCE PACKAGE. Hero, the PP woke up, even though they gave up a shorty. 🐐, COMMUNITY EFFORT FOR LACK OF AN EFFORT. Maxim Tsyplakov got a brutal hit, and that should've been a 5-minute major and a game misconduct, but that doesn't mean the NHL review board. That's something else they should do, ⌚️ YOUR TEAMMATES BACK. They play San Jose tomorrow. They're going to raise Brent Sutter's #21 in the rafters. Congratulations to you, Brent. Those 🦈 have the talent. I hope they don't let the 🦈 ruin it for him just like they did in 2001, when they retired Trots' number. HAPPY 🎂, RUSLAN FETIKINTOV. He scored the GW goal in a win against the Flames in Calgary. Hear from you later, Gil, and LET'S GO ISLANDERS.
This performance was simply not acceptable. And they didn't stick up for each other. It's frustrating to see them stumble again and again. Hope we see improvement, but changes are needed. Thanks for the comment, Cindy. Have a great weekend and LGI.
This team needs a "reboot" - not a total breakdown. All the pressure is on the 1st line to perform or bust. The coaching is there, they have great goaltending, what they need is to get younger, hungrier, players with more heart and get up and go - replace that second line which is lugging, slow, and seems uninterested most times, and replace some older players on the 3/4 line which are in need of talent upgrade. This team has great corners pieces, some nice young vets, now cash in the older vets for younger talent - teams like the Maple Loserrs are dying for a cup, dangle Brock for Minten, or Cowan, or even Nies, and throw in the likes of MCMann (a nice 4th line piece), and a pick to complete the deal. ALWAYS try and get more and more back, REMEMBER these teams are thirsty for cup success, they'll pay! Look at the young talented, fast playing, Sharks tonight - Coach Roy needs some of these types of players. DO NOT trade Dobson unless the deal is too sweet you can't resist. 25 year D-man like him aren't a dime a dozen.
They do need to retool. There are about 7-8 players they can really build around. But they do need to change the roster around and Lou has to realize it and do it. Thanks for hte comment and LGI.
would 5-32-2 be good enough to a. force louzer out? Or b. will louzer walk out before he gets fired? I pick b. More realistic-15-22-2 finish should do it.
Lou have you watched this team you put together this season or have you been sleeping? Let me fill you in, we need to go 26-12 to get to the playoffs. I have a better chance of dating Ann Hathaway then the islanders making the playoffs....Lou it is time to resign, you are useless at this point...
The Identity Line’s demise was emblematic of this whole deterioration. They would come out throw some hits fire up the crowd. Now it’s just crickets. Let Nelson Palmieri etc have a shot at a Cup somewhere. Get some prospects picks back for them. Try and put something down in Bridgeport to develop. They’re circling the drain. And if I were Roy I would resign. This must be driving him nuts. Trying to make chicken soup out of chicken poop every night
I am surprised Roy hasn't resigned. Maybe he's waiting to see if he takes over as the new GM after Lou is let go. Yes, the 4th line used to set the tone, but now, it doesn't do much of anything. I hope we see the changes we need soon. Thanks for the comments and LGI
JUST LOSE BABY!!! L's are isles best friend at this point. On the bright side with another L isles now sit at 5th in lottery standing. Bad side-isles fk away another game and can't finish comeback from 3-1 down. pp scores 2 g's yet gave up sh g that turned game around. And 30 .826 sv.%? Yikes. Isles had no shot to win this one. 7 now isn't contributing shit. 18 skated to his perfect 0's across the board once again. I know some say this is being a bad fan but I WISH FOR L' s AND A LOT OF THEM in last 39 games. L's are isles best friend at this point. A top 5 lottery pick i welcome. Nothing else to root for. This season is over. And no guarantee louzer does a fkn thing. Remember '22 tdl when isles were 20 pts. out and louzer stood pat? And wings, habs, flyers, bj's all w, sens get a loser point. Things aren't getting any better. Dire strait time by sorry useless 4 nations. I wonder how many players go down in that one? Hey louzer, i hear uhc is getting ready to deal looking at j t to make playoff push. Give armstrong a call. hc may be looking for vets with playoff experience. Maybe with draft picks to move hc would like 29. Or with plenty of cap room hc may want a vet net presence having a good season in 27? Get on that phone now louzer. SELL HIGH on 27. Maybe laffs will give louzer a yummy ham sandwich for 24?
Losses are what the team needs until Lou or his successor make the necessary changes. I'll believe it when I see it. Yes, I'd trade Lee now because his value will never be higher. Thanks for the comment, Steven and LGI.
Dirty hit. IMO Players know how to hit without making it look blatant if it was clean Philly players would not have gone nuts. They will get him later they better be ready. Right Gil. An early lead and they just sat back. Make a deal now. Shake things up or just forget the season.
I thought it was a game misconduct and a major when I first saw it. Players do sometimes go nuts on hard but clean hits in the modern NHL, but while I don't think Tsyplakov intended to deliver a head shot, he did make contact with the head. But the league shouldn't overturn the penalty and then suspend. Just be consistent. Thanks for the comment, Alex. LGI
For the right package why not. Still waiting for him to get it. Circling around zone doesn’t score goals. He doesn’t shoot. He doesn’t pass. At least not in a timely fashion. But don’t bring Pettersen in here. They don’t need a soft prima Donna. If JT was 5 years younger he wd be good fit. But not now.
Yeah, and if JT didn't leave the way he did this first time. I'd also listen but I'd need to be getting a really good return to pull the trigger. Thanks for the comments, MichaelSr-sp5pw. LGI
Hi Gil! This is a sub par boring old team. Enough already! Re-sign em all Louless, I don’t give a crap. Tsip-why? You don’t have a physical tough team! If you’re not gonna take care of your own busines then don’t do that! In this league, ya can’t do that because if ya don’t drop them-one of your teammates will pay the price. This team is soft as charmin. Flyers have Delauria, Hathaway and Steeler-we have crap. We played with no heart, no grit, no intensity. Take care Gil!
