We've been seeing it for two years at least. They could have had a haul for him with a year and a half on his contract and it was a very tradable in a losing season. This guy should NOT be on the ice in the final five minutes of a close game. The usual disappearing act at the ten minutes left mark continues.
we nearly blew a 4 goal lead in the third period this is the worst defense i've seen the isles play since the first year i started watching hockey in 2008-2009. Scott Mayfield is the worst defenseman we've had since Bruno Gervais
It could not have come from a better person. Not only our coach but a HOF goalie and one of the all time greats. Every game they're ahead the Isles just turtle at the ten minutes left point. This isn't the Trotz "clamps" where everything is kept at the perimeter and to the outside, where the isles would often spend valuable seconds and minutes in the opposition zone behind the net making it a living hell for the losing opponents to even pull their goalie, let alone set up on a 6-5 with a chance to tie. I think in the 54 game season the isles lost 1 game all season at 5-6 and it was against the Pens. Malkin sniped one from the boards and Isles lst in OT. They were bad against the pens that season until the playoffs and Ilya bailing Varly out in that first series.
Agreed-And Something is wrong when The NY Islanders can’t keep a John Tavares and or Coach Barry Trotz. The NY Islanders fans deserve better than these 3rd period collapses. Fans should just not show up at UBS arena for 2 games, maybe owners, GM and Players will wake up and realize enough is enough with horror show losing games and losing seasons Time to sign NHL elite talent that are proven difference makers on the ice!
Under roy the guys have seem to stick up for each other a lot less then in the past, you can go back to when roy first took over last year in Montreal when Gallagher cheap shot peelch, nobody even did anything I hope this changes things rip chris Simon
Kind of unrelated but why is it that every other team is able to start no name goalies when one of their goalies is injured and have moderate success. Sorokin is awesome but he can’t play every game with Varly injured. A little fun fact for everyone. No islanders goalie has started an islanders game other than Sorokin or Varlomov since Thomas Greiss in the 2020 bubble playoffs.
I’ve stuck up for Mayfield for far too long. I didn’t get a chance to watch the game but Jesus Christ!!!! Enough already with the foot off the gas in the third attitude!!!! Hopefully next year a new GM (hopefully) will clean house and get rid of the dead weight.
So I have never been an islander fan however I am a huge Patrick Roy fan and I am watching their games this year and am starting to become and islanders fan.
I've been saying for past 2 years acott Mayfield SUCKS .turn over machine .and cost us a playoff game when he gave up on a play late in game to complain on a non call
Lou desperately signed Martin because the team is soft and of course it didn’t help because Martin is old and finished. Soft roster is useless just ask the Rangers
It is truly amazing to me that every Islanders fans sees the deficiencies in Mayfields game. Yet, the Islanders organization does not. WILD
I say we take cholowski over mayfield anyday of the week

Every islanders fan sees the deficiencies in the whole islanders program except for the one guy responsible for them.
Mayfield should be benched for Sunday's game

It's always better to give your team a tongue lashing after a win than a loss. Parcel always did this. Never badmouth them when they lose.
