@CMDeDominicis islanders have a blood bath of a schedule to end the year, good luck to them they need it
English
Two points earned and two more lost by the Islanders. The magic number for playoff clinch drops by 4.
English
@IslesDen @PNilan91592 @ChnRstrntKng Yk I’m not sure you can get shit on when there’s a chance they can be top10 in points and miss the playoffs..disgusting work by the western conference
English
@LegacySporting @PNilan91592 @ChnRstrntKng I’ll be ready to dish when we punch our ticket. that take was looking perfect for 4 months😭
English
I know its doom and gloom on here tonight, I feel it and get it.
That doesn't mean I'm not fired up to see what these boys got for Saturday night at the Bell Centre.
It's all still in front of them and I believe in our stars to shine like they have all season. #Isles

@IslesDen @PNilan91592 @ChnRstrntKng I hope so den, when they make the playoffs maybe on the pod you can do a segment of all the funny panic tweets from now until they clinch
English
@LegacySporting @PNilan91592 @ChnRstrntKng We’re in panic mode way too early for me. I’m sick about the loss but this team has a Vezina favorite, historic rookie and 3 fantastic players carrying. They are too good man, they’ll get us to the playoffs
English
@PNilan91592 @IslesDen @ChnRstrntKng Still matchups between Bos/Det, Pens/Wings, CBJ/MTL twice, CBJ/Wings, CBJ/BOS twice, points are going to be lost..not to mention the games isles have against those teams, I’m more off the edge now than couple hours ago, I’m just used to being let down..hopefully they pull it out
English
@PNilan91592 @IslesDen @ChnRstrntKng Yea, in my head personally CBJ is untouchable right now, could that change yea, but right now I’d argue the path is through PIT MTL and Boston
English
@IslesDen @LegacySporting @ChnRstrntKng It will be tough, but with 10 home games o like the chances. Bruins schedule is particularly brutal when you factor in they have 8 road games and have only won 12 of those all season long…
English
@IslesDen @PNilan91592 @ChnRstrntKng 7-6 gets them to 97, idk if that gets you in this year (it’d be the first time it didn’t), but hopefully they show some heart here.
English
@LegacySporting @PNilan91592 @ChnRstrntKng Yeah they need to win, but remember the amount of games teams in the race have vs. each other. This shits gonna be a grind til the end
English
@PNilan91592 @IslesDen @ChnRstrntKng It’s not really being negative, it’s realistic, if the cutoff line is 100 points, which is looks like it may be, they’d have to play some extraordinary hockey to get there, I hope they can do it. I think the focus shouldn’t be on CBJ tho, it should be on PIT MTL and Boston
English
@LegacySporting @IslesDen @ChnRstrntKng So you’re wrong, by definition they 100% control their own destiny. In fact if they beat Columbus in regulation they take back the tie breaker. You’re just being negative…

@IsleStotle It's not just on paper. They looked bad, like they weren't playing to win.
I'll have what you're having 🚬🍀
English
With the 4th most wins in the conference & the 2nd lowest goals against 🧐
Let’s not panic here. Typical #Isles anxiety rearing its common head
Looks ugly on paper but they’re not missing the playoffs
They’ve been consistent all year. They’ve got the swagger. Trust the process
Isles Territory@IslesTerritory
The New York Islanders are currently out of a playoff spot. #Isles
English
@PNilan91592 @IslesDen @ChnRstrntKng The focus should not be on CBJ, they are 17-2 since the coach hiring.
English
@LegacySporting @IslesDen @ChnRstrntKng They have a game against Columbus. That gives them control. 4 point swing.
English
@ChnRstrntKng @IslesDen 100 points is the cutline right now, which is insane, I don’t see the islanders getting to that number
English
@LegacySporting @IslesDen But they realistically only need one team of four to stumble assuming they take care of themselves. They’re fine.
English
@ChnRstrntKng @IslesDen Like I get it, they only need to beat 1 of CBJ PIT MON DET and BOS, I agree it’s hard to imagine that all 5 win the rest of the way but really the only team showing any flaws right now is MON. I think now the attention should be towards the WC, beat MTL, CBJ 14-2 with new coach
English
@IslesDen @ChnRstrntKng But they literally don’t have control of their destiny, they don’t have games in hand, they don’t have tiebreakers. The only way they do it is if other teams stumble. I’d like to think they can get in, but these teams quite literally don’t drop points.
English
@ChnRstrntKng 1 point out just feels like hell because its been 4 1/2 months of being in a spot, but its 1 point. 1. and as you said so much control of our destiny
English
@JamotheDooD @islanders_takes CBJ and Pens are both def in, but even so, 7-6 gets you 97 points, which would be the first time 97 missed
English
@islanders_takes They aren’t getting in. Columbus is too hot and the pens owe us. Good season but Darche did not make the right moves to move the needle.
English
#isles
I disagree. I mean I'm ride or die all the way, and don't see the sky falling here, but it'd be a pretty big disaster to miss the playoffs with the personnel decisions they made and the asset management decisions they made.
That'd be the absolute worst thing that could happen.
Rob Taub@RTaub_
Look if they get in, great. If they don’t, will it suck? Yes. Disappointing? Yes. End of the world? Not entirely. A lot of the things I feel fans wanted or were hoping to see this year have already happened. It’s far from the finished product, but the direction and development are clearly there.
English
English
@WillChiarucci @IslesDen Then James Miller doesn't know what he's talking about, because after these next 2 games, they have the final dozen games, 10 home games. In no universe is that the 2nd hardest schedule to finish with
English
@PizzaSportsGuy They need to be careful, lose tomorrow and they’re outside looking in
English
Dominated the whole 3rd period. Really thought they were gonna do it again. No secret they needto get off to better starts in the 1st. Huge game tomorrow, have to bounce back.
English
@scuderiaonce I noticed the isles pr guy was next to Martin as well
English
@OptimisticIsles @blondedzero @rpharrigan211 @MikeBartner @IslesHouse According to multiple people, Eklund could crack the roster next year, Danny Nelson or Eiserman as well..I get most contracts will be up by the time those guys are ready to take big roles but having your core guys be 33/34 by the time that happens isn’t a good recipe either
English
@LegacySporting @blondedzero @rpharrigan211 @MikeBartner @IslesHouse That’s just stupid… What prospects are ready to crack the roster this season or next year? These players contracts will be up by the time our prospects will be ready
English
Being reminded yet again by @IslesHouse that Palat and Schenn are signed for next season at a combined $13.5M hit like a gut punch.
