@mofunky77 @stefen_rosner Can't really blame sorokin, defense was out of position on both goals

A great start to the game flipped rather quickly for #Isles, who are down 2-0 after the first 20.
Were up 6-1 in shots at some point.
12-10 NYI now. Not much played at 5-on-5 that period.
WPG 1/2 on PP
NYI 0/2 on PP

@islanders_takes I want holmstrom with Horvat, but I think keeping him with JGP is the ideal situation

#isles
Drouin Horvat Palmieri
Duclair Barzal Shabanov
Tsyplakov JGP Holmstrom
Lee Cizikas Heineman

#Isles showcasing new lines at Sunday's practice: Drouin-Horvat-Heineman Duclair-Barzal-Palmieri Lee-Pageau-Shabanov Holmstrom-Cizikas-Tsyplakov E: MacLean, Gatcomb, Ritchie (IR) Romanov-DeAngelo Pelech-Pulock Schaefer-Mayfield E: Boqvist Sorokin Rittich
@IslesDen I'm not mad about heineman, but I am mad that holmstrom isn't getting the opportunity that he deserves. I don't think he would work well with barzal, but he should definitely be getting the shot to work with Horvat
English
Holmstrom and Tsyplakov combined for 80 points in the 2024-25 season, while Emil Heineman recorded 18 in Montreal.
Emil Heineman will start his 3rd game on the top-line with Bo Horvat, while the other two will playing with Casey Cizikas in extremely limited minutes.
Unserious

@MikeBartner Hickey was instantly great and such a natural. Super glad to have him part of the main team going forward
English
Last note on the Islanders (until Monday). It really is ridiculous how good Thomas Hickey is on the mic considering he’s been doing it for so short.
Blessed to hopefully have him and Burke on the call for the next couple decades. 🎙️

@MikeBartner Manifesting the avalanche missing the playoffs (I'm delusional)

@stefen_rosner @Stathead @TheHockeyNews Have you heard anything of George playing RD while in Bridgeport? I know George mentioned he would be willing to play either side during training camp
English
Not only did Schaefer lead the #Isles in minutes played with 26:04. Not only did he play the most minutes out of anyone in the game.
He became the youngest player, at 18 years & 36 days, to play over 25 minutes in a game @Stathead @TheHockeyNews

@EthanGSN I'm glad Duke is proving the haters wrong. Should he have said that he wasn't 100% to staff last year? Yes, but he's a hockey player so obviously he wants to go out and perform. I've always liked him game qnd I'm glad to have him
English
Top 3 Duke. One of my pre-season predictions was a bounce back season from a healthy Duclair. Just needs to earn his way to more ice time.
Bottom 4 here were entirely predictable. Especially Romanov.
Schaefer LMAO.

@islanders_takes Man him and eiserman are going to be a problem
English
@stefen_rosner I feel like he's going to force his way on to the roster next season if he keeps this up
English
Lethal from that spot. #Isles
The Elmonters@TheElmonters
Another weekend, another Goal Eiserman🚨 A bomb!

@MikeBartner Remember when the previous regime announced all the movies they were producing? This is starting to feel like that
English
Coming back around to this, dude actually has to chill on social media.
Hypes up every episode to be “my best work ever” “the most emotional scene I’ve done” or “cameos and set up for Man of Tomorrow galore”.
Let the art speak for itself bro. He’s high on his own supply.

Yzerplan year 7 really includes a 35 year old Travis Hamonic in your lineup on opening night.

@islanders_takes Is it crazy to say that I think these forward lines are the ideal lines
English
#isles
I'll try and be brief - not a strong suit of mine in these kinds of formats. I thought they were who I expected them to be against a PIT club that's very bad.
Poorly coached (special teams in particular).
The RHD situation is atrocious.
Sorokin has moments of brilliance but too many flubs and softies for it to ever matter.
This will be the season killing reality for this club. There's a lot of good pieces, promising pieces, and work to be done before they're a contender.

@nightwing_nick @MikeBartner Never unfortunately even though I try to explain it to the uninformed constantly lol - Isles fans had and have a right to be salty the dude went about it like a prick
English
Oh damn hopefully this isn’t a Tavares 2.0 and ***checks notes*** the Isles go on to win 5 playoff series in 3 seasons while the Canadiens choke it up in the first round. 😕😔
Alex@ivandemigoal
Nobody should be surprised about some Islanders fans posting about Dobson. I’m sure they’re the same people still pissed about John Tavares leaving them lol

Who needs Gavrikov and Spence at the exact same cap hit. 🔥🔥🔥
English
@MikeBartner While I do wish holmstrom was top 6, I like the slow cook style he's had. Plus probably keep him and his chemistry with JGP until JGP gets traded
English
Islanders really got a first line forward, 16th and 17th overall for Noah Dobson. 😳🤯
In all seriousness I love Heineman and think he gets 20 goals. Absolute physical dawg with a wicked shot. Future middle 6 staple.
