Islanders vs Lightning tonight. Roloson in goal (0-11-1 in last 12 starts). Martin got a 2 game suspension for a hit in the last game, so Bailey was brought back up from the Bridge.

 

hopefully this turns out pretty well. if they win today they'll be tied with the Devils, and then if they beat the Devils tomorrow they'll...well they'll be ahead of the Devils obviously.

I'm pretty sure Snow still still believes they're in the running for the playoffs. I think they're about...20 or so pts away from the 8-seed. I think. still not 100% sure how that works.

 

anyway. Islanders were losing 1-0 in the 1st period (missed the goal since I was upstairs getting dinner). Parenteau tied it up with less than 30 seconds left in the 2nd period and Tavares won it for them in OT. 2-1 Islanders.

 

also, I didn't realize this before when I made my last post, but since they've played 2 less games than the Devils they've all ready moved ahead of them.

Man we got a big win the other night over the Predators. The Hawks have looked to their bench more and have started scoring with two of our top three wingers out. Looking forward to when they get back to see how things heat up. Brian Bickell and Jack Skille have been picking up the slack and hopefully we can get Victor Stalberg back up to speed.

 

Admittedly though, I am a little disappointed in Dave Bolland's season so far.

Islanders beat the Devils 5-1 on Thursday. but you know..."The Devils". still though, 7pts in their last 4 games is nice. Bailey has looked great the past 2 games he's been back and scored the first 2 goals on Thursday night. Roloson got the start and he looked pretty damn good out there. Kyle Okposo, I think, should be coming back sometime in January.

 

speaking of the Devils, they've recently fired head coach John MacLean and brought back Jacques Lemaire, though I think it might be interim, I don't remember.

 

 

vs Canadiens this Sunday, Rangers on Monday and then the Penguins and Red Wings on Wednesday and Friday respectively to wrap up December and 2010. here's hoping for some more wins.

Islanders beat the Canadiens tonight 4-1. some really great goaltending by Roloson. goals by Comeau, Grabner, Parenteau and Wisniewski. Plekanec got the only goal of the night for the Habs. 3rd straight win and their 5th straight that they've earned points in (4 wins, 1 OT loss). @Rangers tomorrow night.

 

 

The Devils also lost 4-1 tonight, to the Leafs.

The Islanders are terrible and dysfunctional right now. The only thing you should be hoping for is good draft picks, that's the only way to rebuild. Look at the Penguins. The Blues are still rebuilding, but they're doing it the right way. They tried free agency/trades for years, and it got 'em dick.
