Dirty doesn't even describe how sick this goal is.
Brilliantly epic. However, one must really sympathize with the Islanders, they had a 3 goal lead going into the third period. Not only did they give up that lead- they gave up that lead in part to that goal. These are not easy times for Islanders fans. Personally, their struggles are a mystery to me (though they aren't to anybody else). I thought this would be the year that the Islanders would finally build on all the smart things they had been doing as of late. Between Josh Bailey, John Taveres, Nino, Kyle Okposo, Matt Moulson, Frans Nielsen, Rob Schremp, and Blake Comeau, they were getting a nice young core going. The additions of Eaton, Jurcina, and Wisniewski had me believing that this would be a stronger defensive corps than previous incarnations. Yet key injuries to Streit and Okposo have hurt them, as have the demotions of Bailey and Nino. To top it all off, they fired Scott Gordon, and replaced him with your creepy neighbor who drives a truck and is the bass player in a White Lion cover band. Oh well. At least I hear Quebec is nice this time of year.
