Had a near death experience today. I was at the bank when two armed robbers broke in & held everybody hostage. In an act of desperation, I showed the robbers a New York Islanders game on my phone. They immediately fell asleep from extreme boredom & everybody was saved.
I've never forgotten this. Years ago at the very height of the dead puck era I was at a pub and the game on TV was b/n the Devils and the Islanders. I'm pretty sure that at least half of that game was played in the neutral zone. Made watching curling seem like an adrenaline rush.
Kane made an interesting comment afterwards during the press questioning. Somewhat direct quote, "It's not sustainable, we focus so much on defence all the time, i'm sure we can sustain more offensive pressure....." It almost sounded like he is screaming underneath at the coaching staff to let the offence play their game and let the defensive guys play theirs. I never could understand why coaches try to fit the triangle in the square slot. NOT EVERYONE should play 100% defence. It's annoying af. Let some of the talent flourish in the offensive zone without being paranoid. I guess the back end that Stevie built is not inspiring much confidence in the coaching staff or something?
He’s right. It’s not sustainable and it’s not their defense is any good with this style anyway…. They will lose much of of these games 3-0 than they will win 1-0.
This felt like Brandon Perna (from That's Good Sports) talking about the Broncos with their "New New New New ...Worst Game Ever" and he just keeps adding "new" to each bad game. 🤣
Alex Lyon is a great goalie. Idk why it’s taken everyone so long to figure it out. Assuming he was gonna be goalie 3 for us at the beginning of the year is laughable. Alex Lyon is beast. I hope he continues to tear it up
The fact that they started Husso game 1 with Lyon in the number 3 slot is beyond me. Like he's the reason they nearly made the playoffs down the stretch last year he saved their bacon ! I get you gotta play your 5 million dollar guy but Lyon's earned it ! Go with the hot hand !
Wild are playing good defensive hockey and aren’t going to the box anywhere near what they normally do, which helps out Gus Bus who has been lights out in net. The top six is producing and there haven’t been any liabilities like last year. It’s been fun to watch, hopefully they can keep it up!
I’m not even kidding, I was nervous about a doctor appt last night and couldn’t sleep. I put on a replay of the islanders game and knocked out within 10 minutes. I’m hoping ESPN+ allows us to stream it for a while because it’s better than any drug can do
as an isles fan since 04'. I called the shutout in the first period. I can just tell when this team is not scoring no matter what. Fell asleep during the 2nd and woke up to watch the third period, only to watch what I knew was coming.
I see what you are saying, but if that is really the most boring hockey you have ever seen, then you apparently weren't watching in the mid 1990's, in the heyday of the Neutral Zone Trap. Some of those games were averaging only one or two quality scoring chances per period, for both teams combined. A lot of the rule changes made during the 2004-05 lockout were what finally fixed that. Before then, you shot the puck into the corner, and the goalie would play it right back out before you had any chance to compete for it (which today would be a penalty for a goalie playing the puck behind the line outside of the trapezoid). You try to carry the puck in, and the defense could get away with holding you up in ways that would be a two minute holding or interference penalty today. You finally get the puck in and get some pressure, and the other team either ices it to get a line change (both teams could change players after an icing call back then), or they "accidentally" played the puck out over the boards to get a breather (not a penalty at the time, unless it was so blatantly obvious that a ref was willing to call it as "intentionally" playing the puck over the boards).
A win is a win and we played solid D. Quit wringing your hands. It’s so dang early in the season. There are some real positives in winning a game by shutting the door. Good offense starts with good defense.
They need to play more offense, if we score more goals then the other team it would cancel out whatever defensive problems we have, we have too much talent on offense to not be scoring, i think this one is on lalonde.
Many of the pieces were in place when he took over, the team nose dived in the middle of the rebuild to get another generational talent, and Brisbois did the rest. Yzerman’s prowess has certainly been overstated.
Vassy wasn’t there, Kucherov not there McDonough wasn’t there, sergachev not there, Cirelli not there, Palat not there, Point not there, yeah, everything was already in place. Yzerman traded for McD and Sergachev. Did you pull that out of your A**?
You said it yourself a win a is win,and when you said red wings fans aren’t pleased with the end result even though we won,those are the delusional negative fans who have no heart in this team and make delusional clueless comments when they lose and have no faith in yzerman or lalonde whatsoever F THE HATERS
Let me know if you guys want to see more videos like this!
Definitely! 💯
@@OhNyquist absolutely, this was really enjoyable and also unique content that no other creator targets, would love to see more :)

As an islander fan I fall asleep to most of their games with the best sleep I’ve ever had
I thought you were fr at first 😭 good strategy though!
Proof that there is still good people
You scared me dont do that!
Must've been in Detroit.

Apparently he’s a panther fan now 😂😂😂😂
Anyone remember him from that’s good broncos? He was so damn funny on that channel
All the goals were being scored just down the road in New Jersey.
no kidding

With that being said, this roster is still seriously concerning. Especially the d core and bottom 6
The fact that they started Husso game 1 with Lyon in the number 3 slot is beyond me.

NYI involved in a boring game? Really? 😂
I was wondering what could make the red wings so boring. Then you mentioned the Islanders, and I understood.
Lyons trade value gone up time for Yzerman to cash in 😂
Didn't think there would be a more boring game than the Flames/Canucks a couple years ago or so where Calgary won 1-0 in OT
Ottawa is looking like it's going to be the one that makes the playoffs this year out of Detroit Ottawa buffalo

new prescription sleep aid just dropped
Debrincat has 6 shots total in his last 5 games...
as an isles fan since 04'. I called the shutout in the first period. I can just tell when this team is not scoring no matter what. Fell asleep during the 2nd and woke up to watch the third period, only to watch what I knew was coming.
Sometimes during hockey games I kinda zone out for a few. I feel like I was zoned out the entire time for this one because I legit can’t remember it
I might be a Wings casual but why do they keep trying to push Lyon down the depth chart at the beginning of every season?
Good question! He did kind of cool off towards the end of last season, but other than that I don’t know.
His contract. Literally no other reason
@@_Kakoosh but why do they keep signing worse goalies for more then when they could address something else
Gotta see my red wings pals reactions fr
For real I watched the highlights of that game and was bored thankful to have missed the full game.
As an isles fan when rooting for them it’s not boring, it’s frustrating.
In their 3 wins, Detroit has been out-shot 110-56. Thats not sustainable at all. Talbot stole a game, and Lyon stole 2.
terrible day for islanders fans too 😭😭😭 like how do u LOSE this 😭😭
10 shots what the actual f 🤣 Islanders has been a boring team for years but to beat them in their own game like this is just hilarious.
I thought my preseason game of 9 in 2 periods was bad😭😭😭
Bro you should review every Red Wings game. They are one of the most important franchises.
every Detroit game is an absolute snore.
The Lalonde experience.
Which is annoying as we have a lot of exciting players, but they’re held back by whatever “system” they are forced to follow.

I never watched the game but it feels almost like a video game with that kind of shot count
A win is a win and we played solid D. Quit wringing your hands. It’s so dang early in the season. There are some real positives in winning a game by shutting the door. Good offense starts with good defense.
Getting bailed out by a goalie isn’t “solid D.”
I called the wild to make the playoffs this year
They need to play more offense, if we score more goals then the other team it would cancel out whatever defensive problems we have, we have too much talent on offense to not be scoring, i think this one is on lalonde.
The rebuild built a rebuild. This franchise is cooked.
Can we talk about the Washington Capitals?
They are really doing well
At least they aren't 2 -4- 1 EDMONTON
if this how they have to play to win they need a shake up, and get rid of these mid old players.... Bring up the kids
Yzerman coming onto the fraud radar recently... still thinking he's a good GM but I think he got lucky with Tampa
Many of the pieces were in place when he took over, the team nose dived in the middle of the rebuild to get another generational talent, and Brisbois did the rest.
Yzerman’s prowess has certainly been overstated.
Vassy wasn’t there, Kucherov not there McDonough wasn’t there, sergachev not there, Cirelli not there, Palat not there, Point not there, yeah, everything was already in place. Yzerman traded for McD and Sergachev. Did you pull that out of your A**?
What about the jets
Talked about them in Mondays video! They are elite.

If Lyon Can Steal Points @ this rate It's going to be a grate Season Shut'em Down LYON!!!!!!!
Hahaha he said shit
This team sucks.. So tired of sucking..
Yzerplan still a failure
Ottawa better, forsburg now has shutout baby
