Gameday: Game 19 - Pens at Islanders

Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum

7 pm

TV: Root

Radio: 105.9 The X

Cal Clutterbuck's Islanders are trying to do whatever he said the other day and that is sweep the Pittsburgh Penguins in a mini-November 2 game series. The Islanders and Penguins would be tied for First in the Metro if the Islanders win tonight in regulation (let's all freak out about this!!!!1!!!111!!). Thomas Greiss will get his 4th start in net for the Pens tonight, he's won 2 straight. Jaroslav Halak will be in net for the Isles who has won 5 straight games. We expect both teams to play better than last night. This will be one of the last few games the Penguins play in the Dump that they call the Coliseum, hopefully they can fix the scoreboard in the Barclays Center by next October...

Game Notes:

• Expect a few more powerplays than last night (1 total)
• Expect retribution towards Johnny Boychuk for his cheapshot at Evgeni Malkin last night (gif in the link: Boychuk is a piece of shit)
• Tonight should be fun

Not much else to say, fun to play a team twice in 48 hours.

See you soon.

Do It

Go Pens.
