If Roy thought they were so bad, he should not have taken the HC position. You take that position you put a hard limit on how much you gonna btch bc guess what- Roy's responsible on some level. And now he just looks like a whiner as well.
Start over. Trade Nelson, Palmari, any defenseman but Dobson and George, 1 of the goalies for as many picks as you can and start over. Period. Enough bullshit already. Spoiled brat players on this team.
News flash, Islanders suck and Roy is not a good coach
Mitchy with the full-bodied lip sweater!
We need a complete overhaul of this roster. Everyone must go!
I mean yes the roster sucks but 64 percent!?!?!??! Roy has to take some heat. Roy is not a very good coach in my opinion
ROY IS NOT A GOOD COACH PERIOD. ITS THAT OBVIOUS. IT IS THAT OBVIOUS MY FRIENDS.EVEN A 2 YEAR OLD COULD FIGURE OUT ROY IS NOT A GOOD COACH.
It's not the coach this team has played this way last 3yrs the players are stale and the coaches are not on the ice.. This team has quit on Trotz Lambert and now Roy..
Lou has not put a quality team together and worse he gave out extended contracts to players who’s play has declined greatly. Our power play has been horrific for years not just this year. We have no high end talent. That is why our PP stinks. We have players on the power play that would not play on the PP on any other team. Our defense is horrible. Pelech and Puloch were a shut down pair. They are older, slower and have been injured and never recovered to the same form. There are players in the slot WIDE OPEN all the time. Did you see players on the ice smiling and laughing when we were down 2 to nothing? I don’t think they really care anymore. I see no heart. No fight. No hitting as a team. No finishing checks. They talk about leadership in the locker room. Many leaders. We play for each other. Non of the fans see it. I don’t care that the scored 2 goals after pulling the goalie. 95% of the game they stunk up the ice. It’s a must to trade Nelson and Palmeri. No decision. They are mid 30’s and will want $ and term. We need youth, speed and skill. Signing them means we will have the same exact team which spells disaster. JG should also go. Another player who has been injured and never recovered. Fashing should go back to the AHL. Macclean forgot how to throw a bodycheck after he got a contract. Mayfield another injured player who has not recovered. Engvall never want to see again. Dobson our best d man having a horrible year so far. Romanov looks OK. George has been an incredible surprise. Holmstrom has been good. Lou again has put a terrible product on the ice. As far as Roy goes I just haven’t seen the fire. A mediocre team seems acceptable. We need MAJOR changes. Every fan would rather go through some pain to have a much better team down the road the question is does the ownership just want to maybe slid into the playoffs again and get blown-out first round? Worst power play. Worst penalty kill. Incredibly inconsistent. No leadership. No fight. No checking. No farm team. No high end talent. This team is going no where. The stanley cup odds are less than zero at this point. This is the current reality. We need to face it. This group has had more than 9 lives………
Low effort game again
Team has no talent except for horvat barzal and duclair. A rebuild is necessary! Trade nelson,palmieri, cizikas, lee,pags,.we need picks and young scorers.and Lou must be canned immediately.
