Honestly, if that no-call happened against the Isles I would have been furious. But, it didn't, so...

Great effort in the third. I didn't think the effort in the second was a problem; but too many penalties plus some bad plus plus some bad luck (namely the puck being knocked out of Varly's glove on the third goal) made it pretty bad. Great fight back though.

Between the Jets and Islanders (and my EPL team no one here cares about), my teams are all end of game teams at the moment. Dangerous way to live, but exciting when it works.

Oh, that no call was bad - and with the ref looking right at it. Bad enough when that happens, but when it leads directly to a goal? Would be livid!

Enjoy the good times while you can!

Lost in the win is the decision to move Whally to the fourth line. Bad move.

Lambert says he'd like to see him get more shots and then moves him off of Barzal's line? Especially in favor of a guy you bring up from the AHL!

Makes no sense. We need to do better.

Lee/Barzal/Nelson may be fine for a shift at game's end, but two centers on a line isn't the best use of talent.

If Cal is out on Thursday, let’s see if it stays that way. He said he liked his game from the second period on so maybe that moves him back up. I don’t think Soshnikov was bad but didn’t do anything that says he should be back with Barzal
