This month of games against tough opponents like Colorado, Pittsburgh, and Tampa may be the start of a fast downward spiral for the team.
Leaky defence. More turnovers than a bakery. -looks like to me that the team's weak mental state is going to take an even bigger beating.
-No pushback in games when the team is trailing in a game.
An inept defensive "system" under assistant coach Mike Yeo along with inept defencemen such as Meyers and OEL.
It looks like either this team has quit on each other when the team is trailing in games or just waiting to see what Allvin and the rest of the management team are going to do to stop the bleeding with this team.
The Islanders are a well coached team that plays with a good defensive system. Boudreau kept telling the team to block shots. He told reporters that he writes down the phrase "shot blocking" on a whiteboard in the locker room.
A big stat from last night's game: Islanders: 18 blocked shots. Canucks: 3 blocked shots.
