Islanders-Flyers on Versus [game thread]
New York Islanders at Philadelphia Flyers, Mar 9, 2010 7:30 PM EST
My entrails like details / Left and forgotten
My saddle like a battle / Lost in the past
When they said skidattle / I came home fast
Came home alive
But not entirely well --
Most folks couldn’t tell...
>>The Hoagland Conspiracy, "Home Alive"
The Islanders have five regulation wins in 2010. Every one except the Jan. 6 squeaker in Denver has come on home ice. The Flyers aren't kind, the road isn't kind -- hell, NHL hockey games have not been kind to the Islanders lately.
Here's hoping they come home alive.

JT scores!
Wow, look at that monkey running off his back.
And from the same spot he’s picked up previous goals against the Flyers.

Grabs streit from behind…Hope that earns him a beating. Piece of crap. Nice to see KO pushing and shoving a bit!

They force Gordon to speak to the broadcast during the game.

Of course
Out indefinitely with knee swelling…He’s probably done, they should teach him to play defense then that outlet pass might be helpful.

I can’t remember where i read it, somewhere on Twitter I think, but someone wisecracked that DiPietro’s place in the locker room won the Oscar for Best Picture….

His mask certainly shows nice cinematography.

Haha
But seriously, I read somewhere how abnormal it was that the knee still swells like that and that if it is still happening, it’s not likely to go away. Keeping my fingers crossed for an insurance settlement that doesn’t count against the cap!
He should go Bionic

I’ve heard it can take two years to recover from that much surgery. I guess we can look at the bright side, that he really didn’t look out of place when he did play. Especially being a year removed from NHL level play, a .900 SV% and 2.60 GAA aren’t horrible, his AHL stats were worse.
Please NBC, Fire Milbury, Hire Roenick Full time!!!
That’s the thing — it’s natural for people to want resolution now, but he could even take a year of rest off and still have a contract and a chance before he turned 30. Don’t think the story is nearing its end yet.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Yeah but
I think the recovery (getting back to form) vs what this is (every time I move my knee swells) are two different things. This is pretty much what happened to him after the first surgery right?
Well the way I look at it, its how many years now? 12 or 13 left? They might be shutting him down for something that would be considered minor on another player.
Also I think the week off really did him in, as the knee swelled at the first practice pre-olympics if memory serves right.
As long as he doesn’t try to push himself, I’m all for it.
Please NBC, Fire Milbury, Hire Roenick Full time!!!
Apparently he had practiced for 3-4 days before the knee swelled, or at least before he pulled himself out.
Hard to say, as he played quite a bit and even 2-in-3 since coming back. It would be fun if the Isles let the doctors talk like other sports do. Not holding my breath on that one.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
All good for now
But it will really suck if this is going on in a couple of years when we need cap room for free agents, are confused about getting another goalie and looking for deep runs into the playoffs.
I want to hate Hartnell
but he’s got such awesome hockey hair ….
.... formerly "Tim" of StLouisGameTime.com
I'll tell ya what:
Reese may have been something of a steal – if tonight’s game is any indication…..
Wooohoooo
JT Finally scores! It was beautiful too because Leighton was confused by Sim (or was it Park?) and Moulson’s movements on the right side of the net while the puck was on the left.
Also am I the only one surprised the Isles are 29th in the league in PK? It feels like a better PK then that. It’s just when they are having bad nights anyway they seem to give up a lot of PP goals.
Please NBC, Fire Milbury, Hire Roenick Full time!!!
Dom - status of.....
Sat. 3-21 Vs. Devils? This game is getting me excited again about the possibility….
Been meaning to email you
It doesn’t look very good on my end. Wife’s trip and some other events have gotten in the way. I have farecaster open right now though to see if I can still pull it off. Sorry to leave you hanging (and leave possible planning so late).
Wait — I just double-checked the Isles schedule, and that game is THIS Saturday (3/13)! They’re on the West Coast over the 21st. I thought something was odd about the Blues visiting them this Thursday. We’ll have to go over this offline to see if there’s another option.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
If you guys are on the east coast and in the Tri-State Area (NY/NJ/PA) you better not leave me in the dark, I haven’t been to an NHL game in a long, long time.
Please NBC, Fire Milbury, Hire Roenick Full time!!!
Definitely won't
Had talked about this one off and on (and I had the wrong date all this time), but could never sort things out enough with home stuff to arrange something firm. Would like to announce some sort of event far enough in advance for anyone who can to make plans.

Wahlberg really did an incredible job, proving that he can be a good actor. Lewis was genuinely awesome, which is nothing new. I think if you run down the list, many of those men went on the star or play roles in other Movies/Series. They’re not huge headliners, but I think that really lent itself to the quality of the series. They were all excellent actors, not prima donnas.

From what I read, it won’t be exactly the same, it might follow a few story lines, but based on the same concept. It’s another Tom Hanks piece of work. I don’t know that much about it, but i’ve also kind of shied away as to not ruin my burgeoning interest.

also on this date in hockey history
1904— Lester Patrick became the first defenseman to score a goal
1993— Penguins began their record setting 17 game winning streak. Oh well!
One Goal Losses
The Islanders have had their fair share of one goal losses over the last 2 seasons.
Last year: 24 one goal losses, 9 in OT/SO
This year: 19 one goal losses, 8 in OT/SO
This is positive. I think that we’re 2 big players away from turning this around. Of course, I just looked at the scores/records, and I don’t remember the exact way the team played. One goal scorer and one shut down d-man and maybe some of those bounces turn the other way. Plus, another year under KO, Bails, JT, Franzy, Moulson Golden, Rob Shremp Hockey’s belts, not to mention A-Mac, Hillen, and Kohn-head, and we’re pretty solid.
Come to mention it, I would blame last years one goal losses on spotty goaltending. This year, I would blame it on spotty defense/scoring. One year, it’ll all come together…
I think it’s just cause our top forwards are so young/inexperinced
Schremp/Moulson first real season of full time action for either of them
JT is a rookie
Okposo and Bailey are both in their 2nd season
Nielsen is only in his 2nd full time season
They score, but they don’t seem to get those clutch goals all that often.
Please NBC, Fire Milbury, Hire Roenick Full time!!!
