This is just classic Islanders though, looks like the season is over, so they rattle off six wins and get back in the wild card. Then they shit the bed for four in row to sit right outside. They’ll probably put another modest streak together before losing their last three to miss the playoffs.
You know they’ll pick up points in their next few to make you think they have a chance to make the playoffs. They don’t. Rooting for this team is a punishment
Can we beat the canes that’d be great
WHY DO YOU PULL ME BACK IN IF YOU’RE JUST GOING TO LET ME DOWN AGAIN AND AGAIN
Embarrassing
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I want this team to make the playoffs obviously but even IF they do get in they aren’t going to go anywhere. There’s to much dead weight on this roster that needs to go. Anytime they play a younger faster team they just look absolutely lost.
Always next year. And so forth.
Until maybe get next Mario Lemiuex in draft.
It’s over for this team and this group. The sad part is that this is the best it’s going to get for the foreseeable future.
You all can call me delusional and doomer all you want, but the one thing you can’t call me… is a liar.
We are too old and slow. I don’t know how many times I have to say it. We are not built for the playoffs as we are. We keep running it back and expect a different result… that’s insane.
Been a fan since 1977 and I’ll be rooting for them to literally lose all of the remaining games this year. Why? I want Lou gone!! He has ruined the Isles for at least the next 10 years! At my age I’m resigned to never seeing the Isles win another cup in my lifetime. FUCK LOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
No playoffs? No high draft pick?
I blame Lou. Half these contracts are albatrosses w NTC.
Please just keep losing and stop giving me hope. This team affects my life in an unhealthy way.
I’m going to root for my secondary favorite team the Vegas Golden Knights, I want to know what it feels like to cheer for a good team.
Plus if the Golden Knights win we at least don’t need to worry about the Devils for a little bit.
someone get the billboard up
Outplayed all around. Lost puck battles. Reverted back to chipping it up the boards. Bad passes. Losing your man while play D. No gap control. The only thing that was missing was bad penalties and PP goals.
I don’t know what is up with this team. How can they play hard and tight and string together a 6 game streak, then absolutely flip flop and lose 4 and look so bad? It’s like everyone is skating with the flu. Do they even want to be in the playoffs or not? Absolutely bipolar
Laviolette 18-4-1 against the Isles since 2018-19
Brutal. Just brutal.
Is there any doubt that, after they inevitably lose to the Hurricanes, they will beat the Red Wings just to toy with us?
It was fun to have hope again for a week. Now back to indifference and waiting for baseball regular season to start
They’re gonna go undefeated the second they’re eliminated, aren’t they?
They will end 1 point out so they get the highest draft pick possible. Then we will trade it away at the draft for a 4th line RW.
Meanwhile, the player picked in our spot will be the next big superstar.
Not the result we wanted for the derby game against Rags. But trust me, Fish sticks are going to the playoffs.
It’s Bover (for about the 4th time this year)
Pain. But you can’t kill what’s already dead
Where my delusional unicorn rainbow fans at ???? 😂 you guys should be embarrassed
FIRE LOU!!!
“Miracle era” 🙄
I don’t even put the blame on Lou at this point. I put it on ownership. They clearly needed bottoms six help and capable defenseman Lou did nothing again. How much longer is ownership gonna bask in having a beautiful building?
