Isles blow live bears vs the Bruins, losing 4-0. First goal sure looked similar to Lee's disallowed goal the other night, but if I say that I sound like a Crylanders fan, right? So I won't say it. Second goal went off Boychuk's skate. Nothing like helping the old teammates!
I had to leave after that, so I have no idea on the other goals, and I'm not going to bother watching.
Butch Goring had his #91 raised to the rafters. In typical Butch fashion, he gave a good speech, complete with roasting old teammates, and of course, mispronounced some names, including "Mart" Barzal (while comparing him to Bobby Bourne). Poor Barzal. Nobody remembers or gets his name right, especially not Isles who wore #91.
Other Isles news:
Ho-Sang wasn't traded, but was "assigned" to the Blues' AHL team. It's a way of telling him he's out of the Isles' org, and free to show his skills and attitude to a new team. I'd say it's weird, but nobody apparently made ANY offer when he asked for a trade, and nobody took him when he was waived. Of course, he scored in his first game with his new team. All too typical.
NY Gov Cuomo took time off from fucking over teachers to announce that the Isles will play their remaining 3 regular season games at Barclays, and then ALL home games from now on, regular season and playoffs, will be at the Coliseum until Belmont is open. No more Barclays Center (other than those 3 games). It's a big announcement for fans, most of whom hated going to Brooklyn and REALLY hated the Barclays Center itself. I went once. It sucked.
Canadiens on Tuesday and Sens on Thursday. Maybe the extra day off will help them remember how to score.
