A couple goals by Crosby would be nice as well.

Only Paul Martin could get blamed when he collides with a goalie 15 feet from the net.

eh... I already resigned to the fact a couple weeks ago that we were facing philly in the first round. So I am not too angry.

At first I thought it was a good idea, but I'm starting to wonder if the constant line shuffling has screwed the team up a little.
Anyways, that aside I'm not seeing the emotions and physical play. Need that back ASAP.

Oh, wait...
I'm not sure if we'd be winning, but the game would be closer and less people would be hurt.

So tired of hearing how many shots on goal the pens have. Its a meaningless stat when you give no effort on defense.

Three goals in one period really isn't too much to ask, guys. Get a grip.

Same here. And for the sole reason that we have the Isles twice in the last 7 games. Those are usually losses when it comes crunch time, or you are on some sort of streak.
We'll beat the Rags but finish 2 pts behind them.

I think we needed a game like this. A terrible defensive game by the team with FLeury not bailing them out constantly. Maybe they will get it in their heads that they have to try in their own end like they used too when they weren't scoring 30 goals a game.

I agree, but it's keeping three out of our net that's the challenge right now.

Three goals without giving one up might be a lot to ask.

If anything, the goalie almost killed himself there.
i agree - he didn't even go for the puck. we got a third period for the pens to come back.

I missed the first 2 periods. Can someone provide some quick insight as to why NYI has scored 5 goals against us

This team has given up caring about defense lately. And MAF doesn't bail them out for a change. That being said, completely awful performance from Fleury.
