Really good win after going down 2 D-men in the first 3 minutes of the game.
Did Wahlstrom ever come back after taking that hit? I don’t remember seeing him.
2 points in regulation with four D. Strong game.
good win. would have rather not have had those two quick goals after taking a lead, but not bad with out two young Dmen playing half the game in time.
WOOOOO ISLES WIN BABY LETS GOOOOOOOO 3 IN A ROWWWWW
What a great gutsy team win. Hope Pelech and Aho have speedy recoveries. Tomorrow will be tough, back-end of a back-to-back with your top 4 dmen exhausted and your bottom 2 being non regulars (wonder who it would be in addition to Bolduc). Need Sorokin to steal one
Varlamov is having an insane bounceback year. 4 defensemen on the ice and he stood incredibly tall and stole us one.
2 points < Pelech, Aho, possibly wahlstrom ☹️
defense stepped up massively here
What an effort, great win
If Aho can’t go tomorrow, we don’t have the cap space to call anyone up unless Holmström gets sent to Bridgeport or Martin gets LTIRed
CALL THE POLICE BECAUSE WE’RE GOING STREAKING
Thank you for doing a win
We’re so fuckin’ back
[When the Islanders gets those two points we pause for respect](https://youtu.be/A7lLHJ6yfH0?si=3Vnz53afvQd-7oOp)
All the dmen were fantastic even though they had a two minute stretch were they were bad but overall really good play from them. Varlomav was great especially the last two minutes. The power play seems improved much more of a shooting mentality and driving the net. Who’s the 6 th dmen Salo ? Id assume bolduc is for sure playing tomorrow.
Except for the 2 failed d-men puck drops behind the net they were excellent for 60 minutes
More please
Was not expecting that result after losing Aho and Pelech early, impressive effort from the boys
Confidence building win

Best third period maybe all season. Especially with 2 D going down early that was an impressive win.
This third period made me really optimistic about this team. They started to really show the isles defense we all know and love. FINALLY. Choke anyone who gets the puck and force them to make a dumb decision or cough it up. If we combine with our offense that is actually doing shit we can be really good.
Why were there only 4 defesemen?
