Stat I cannot argue with any of this and would like to say that you are wrong but Lou has given me zero reason
Alot of guys are worthless right now = Josh Bailey always comes to my mind. We have a bunch of nice players and the power play moves the puck better than last year but they just dont have any finishers or a guy or guys who can score with consistency
Islanders win another close game but at least they win,,,,,,for the umpteenth time can we please trade for some offense ?????
https://www.thefourthperiod.com/dec-2019/hall-trade-talks-heat-up-as-hes-scratched-from-game Hall scratched from tonight's Devils game. Come on Lou get it done.
I’m not really crazy about Hall, he’s not the healthiest player at this point in his career. I don’t want another Andrew Ladd situation. Rather wait and see if there is a better trade offer later on in the season before deadline.
Menace I have been so desperate for a trade that I will take what ever I can get at this point ,,,,,and Hall is a much better player IMO than Ladd ever was but I get your point
I understand where you are coming from, however, Brock Nelson has very similar numbers to Hall at this point. Hall had one great year with 39 goals, other than that he’s been the same offensive player that Brock Nelson has been. I believe Hall is a byproduct of his draft status as a number one overall pick, Edmonton traded him and now he is the verge of being traded for second time. I know Isles need offense being ranked 28th in the league for offense, but they need to bring in an elite offensive player who they can sign long term. In my opinion Hall does not fit that bill.
I see the Isles offense is doing "wonderful" again. Tied 1-1 after 2 with Sabres. They had 3 straight PP's and only 1 shot on goal. This lack of scoring will kill them come playoff time. Hopefully they can find a way to win the 3rd P and come a way with a win. LGI
I ALSO AGREE with this = unless they address the offense we will be 1 and done come playoff time. They move the puck way better than last year on the power play but the bottom line is this team has ZERO finishers.
I was at the game for my birthday along with my wife, my kids, and their significant others. It was an entertaining game, but the Isles were pretty convincingly outplayed in both the second and third periods. And of course lots of missed opportunities. I'm willing to entertain that like last year it could be two-and-done rather than one-and-done, but this is not a championship contending team without a top quality scorer or two.
Stat had I known you were going I would have made the effort to say hi,,,,,that said 1 and done 2 and done it does not matter as done is done = the Power Play is dreadful these are the same guys who struggled to score last year and nothing has changed they just move the puck better
