    Does being a choke artist qualify you to be a sandwich artist?

  2. Nelson wasn’t trying to slash Guentzel there. He was aggressively tapping him to remind him how many goals they were up by before choking there. One, two, and three!

  3. Neat_University_3509

    Code? was he not supposed to shoot it in the empty net?

    kinda weak to get upset over that. mostly frustration tbh, quite literally the worst collapse in islanders playoff history. but hey, at least we know the players care about something, cause they sure as hell didn’t care about winning the game!

  5. Islanders almost scored on their own net about 30 seconds before this, what’s the code say about that?

  6. Nothing wrong with what he did. Islanders just pissed they get a shot on goal like every 10 minutes of gameplay.

    Play to the whistle, quit the whining about your feelings when someone dunks on you.

  8. BigSm00thy

    There’s no code on salting a win away with certainty.

  9. Curious_Question1092

    What if the code is retarded? Can you violate it then?

  10. BasicTeacher3232

    It wasn’t a slap shot. Islander were just shell shocked at how bad they chocked

    Nelson is being an absolute idiot here. Taking all his anger and frustration out by slashing Guenztel after the game is already lost.
    Why couldn’t any single one of them decided to turn that frustration into a damn shot on goal instead, preferably before we blew the lead away? Hell even if we limped this game into OT there’s still a chance we could’ve pulled a miracle out of our asses, but nahh let’s lose it in regulation and then act like goons. Certified Peak New York Islanders moment

  12. Since when is there a rule that you can’t shoot into an empty net when you’re only up by 1 and there’s a minute left?

    I love watching Aho absolutely rip that toddler ass goon away from Jake.

    we really need a “the code” copypasta similar to the Goalie Interference copypasta

  15. Smart-Past-8655

    There is no code about this. That would be moronic.

  16. Zarkothesharko18

    He didn’t violate any code he had a dude on his ass. Made sure he made the shot this is just Isles sending a message bc they blew the game and can’t beat them on the scoreboard. And no not a Canes fan…

    The “code” that allows for slashing or cross checking a player after he scores a goal needs to go away. Not just talking about this particular play, but all of the times it happens during the season. Start calling the penalties and it will stop immediately. So lame.

  18. Limp-Inevitable-6703

    He didn’t slap it, he was being chased and slashed so he made sure he got it in there

  19. Glorfin-Fitz

    I genuinely don’t know what “code” is supposedly being broken? Was he supposed to shoot earlier? Im assuming their just but hurt they lost.

  20. Fritz6161

    Before this season, I don’t remember players being so sensitive to how empty net goals are scored.

  21. missiongoalie35

    Where in the hell does the Code say “don’t score on an empty net”? Did I miss a meeting or email?

  22. McLovin823

    As a Coyotes fan, if I had a nickel for every loss that resulted in a two goal deficit in exactly this fashion…

    What code? You pulled your goalie, had an extra attacker on the ice, and still couldn’t win. Tough darts.

  23. That wasn’t even egregious. He put pretty mid effort into it. Islanders are just salty that they shit the bed.

  24. Apparently you treat it like curling. Get the broom and gently feather that shit into the net

  25. Spiritual_Holiday511

    This shit is getting so ridiculous. He has a guy right on his ass so he wrists it in the net. No wind up slapper, just a regular shot. Feels like you’re going to get attacked unless you politely ask both the puck and the opposition if you can gently coax it into the net.

  26. Bobbyoot47

    Somebody who is in alone on an empty net with a chance to put the game away has to do a Michigan. That I really want to see.

  27. Please. Islanders are just mad they lost. If they were winning then they wouldn’t have reacted this way.

  28. reallymkpunk

    The Isles were frustrated about blowing a 3-1 lead. That said it was hardly a slapshot.

  29. Nothing about the code to do with this. It’s a Patrick Roy coached team.

  30. ruinedbyconversation

    So there is no correct way to score an empty netter anymore?! 🤯

  31. This is what loser mentality looks like. Fuck the Isles.
