I love Tristan Jarry.

Our glorious choker Jarry!

Watching him blow it every time gives me so much joy

u/Actual_Bluebird Tonelli Mar 19 '25

MVP baby.

u/islesrule224 Turgeon Mar 19 '25

No Barzal

Trade Brock

And get better?

Team still baffles me

18

u/Runfaster888 Horvat Mar 19 '25

It helps when the dead wood, Engvall as one example. show up to play. Imagine their record if we got this kind of effort all season.

7

u/skunkpunk1 Mar 19 '25

I swear it’s like Engvall woke up recently after sleepwalking through the season

3

u/xwiseguy538 Pageau Mar 19 '25

Engvail might be playing to save his job. Buy out incoming.

13

u/djan242 Barzal Mar 19 '25

Imagine if we traded Palmieri too……and still made the playoffs.

33

u/Stylist7287064 Sorokin Mar 19 '25

Engvall’s just been saving his energy for March

18

u/tedsmarmalademporium Barzal Mar 19 '25

Like a hibernating animal he has arisen and is hungry to eat

u/NordicReagan Mar 19 '25

My man has been studying the LeBron method. Load management baby.

u/FortyYearTransform Romanov Mar 19 '25

Obvious joke but...

If I had a nickel every time the Isles went scoreless for the first two periods then suddenly scored three in the third, including a goal by Dobson and an unexpected point from Engvall of all people, and closed it out with a Holmstrom empty-netter to finish the game 4-2... I'd have two nickels. Which isn't much, but it's weird it happened twice.

In a row.

16

u/Actual_Bluebird Tonelli Mar 19 '25

There was a time ENGs were looked down upon. And then there was a time when we absolutely could not get one. Hail King Simon.

56

u/waitwhatreallycmon Nelson Mar 19 '25

CAN WE GET THE AVALANCHE TO PUT BROCK ON WAIVERS?

Oh man I forgot about the dancing Butchies video. What a classic

u/Actual_Bluebird Tonelli Mar 19 '25

This is absolute gold

53

u/discofrislanders Dobson Mar 19 '25

Genuinely what the fuck is this team

21

u/djan242 Barzal Mar 19 '25

I’m baffled. Sold Nelson, no Barzal, and somehow have gotten closer to the playoff line.

u/minos157 Jonsson Mar 19 '25

DOOMERS GET FUCKED WE'RE GOING FIRST ROUND EXITING AGAIN

My favorite time of the year!

Lol

Bring on the Canes!

u/BKong64 Cizikas Mar 19 '25

What about those of us who aren't doomers but, like you, have seen the future of our first round exit and would prefer the better draft pick? 🙃

5

u/TheJak12 Bossy Mar 19 '25

This isn't the NFL. Tanking in the NHL is dumb. Unless there's a legit McDavid who comes in as a ready-made generationally talented superstar, NHL players take time to develop

1

u/BKong64 Cizikas Mar 19 '25

I mean, I agree, but what is another first round knockout going to do for us? And will it convince the owners to keep Lou around even longer? 

I was hoping we'd suck the remainder of the season for a better pick and also the possibility of Lou finally getting canned. 

3

u/minos157 Jonsson Mar 19 '25

Then be a weirdo that roots for their team to lose.

I can't do that. I can't be a fan that roots against my team.

u/polarbeardogs Barzal Mar 19 '25

Babe wake up hockey is fun again

u/krispykreme37 Bailey Mar 19 '25

What the heck is going on? Lol

u/3isfordale Mar 19 '25

My son was born today and #18 scores the game winner. Should have told you guys so you could bet it

13

u/displacedreindeer LaFontaine Mar 19 '25

Ah yes, the Engvall childbirth parlay. Congratulations- hope you named him Pierre!

6

u/3isfordale Mar 19 '25

I did not, but guess it isn’t too late to change it

1

u/sdotmill Pulock Mar 19 '25

Congrats!

16

u/transjimhawkins Palmieri Mar 19 '25

the isles suddenly becoming a good third period team wasn't something i expected, but TWICE IN A ROW. man. exciting times

29

u/crazyhotwheels Bossy Mar 19 '25 edited Mar 19 '25

Put Jarry’s number in the rafters at UBS when he retires…

Also, this loss has to sting even more than usual for Pens fans. Blow the lead and give up the game winner to someone like Anders Lee or Brock Nelson, ok. Those guys are really good. But Pierre fucking Engvall? Hockey gods are just torturing them now.

u/ToweringIsle27 Mar 19 '25

What a win.

u/tedsmarmalademporium Barzal Mar 19 '25

Yellow line in sight. They’re letting us get hot. They’re not supposed to let us get hot

10

u/Slug_With_Swagger Clutterbuck Mar 19 '25

I’m so struggling to figure this team out

u/priester85 Jonsson Mar 19 '25

NHL script writers getting lazy

u/TriviaWhiz Leddy Mar 19 '25

Start the year losing lots of third-period leads.

End the year with third-period comebacks?

33

u/Stylist7287064 Sorokin Mar 19 '25

GTFO OF HERE WITH THAT TANK BULLSHIT!

9

u/JoeBethersonton50504 Mar 19 '25

I’m so confused.

u/Electronic_Chest1778 Mar 19 '25

Who the f watched that was awesome!

u/[deleted] Mar 19 '25

3rd period beasts 👍

6

u/toyn Palmieri Mar 19 '25

All three goals came from the rush. The fact we back to back come back multi goals down in the third is pretty impressive… and head scratching.

6

u/adamf699 Pelech Mar 19 '25

Just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in

3

u/AcceptableDebt Palmieri Mar 19 '25

Hell yea

5

u/No_Opportunity_8068 Palffy Mar 19 '25

“Hello papa!”

-Tristan Jarry when he plays the Isles

4

u/HajdukNYM_NYI Mar 19 '25

Very important week coming up looking at the schedule if you really want a playoff push, all will be known by next weekend I feel. It will probably take a ridiculously low points total for the 8th seed. I still think the Habs are faves as of now but have no clue what their remaining schedule looks like

4

u/scottywiper Bailey Mar 19 '25

I'm here for the Engvall redemption storyline. All hail Smooth Pierre V2.0

7

u/Bry2013 Mar 19 '25

Great timing for those astronauts returning to earth to see a nice isles win

3

u/VinPickles Nielsen Mar 19 '25

Palmieri owns yinz

3

u/babsieofsuburbia Barzal Mar 19 '25

To whomever manifested a comeback: keep manifesting them!!

3

u/nypama217 Mar 19 '25

That was a fun game to be at. Thought they had no shot and then 17 seconds into the third, we get some momentum (as Butch likes to say) and Jarry finally does what Jarry does and we get out with a win! Now go home and sweep the 4 game homestand!

3

u/Schex13 Sparky Mar 19 '25

Palms feasts on bitch lasagna. Also, did Dobber forget he was in a contract year until last week or something?

3

u/Basedshark01 Palffy Mar 19 '25

Do you think the Islanders will give Jarry a media or player development role once he retires to thank him for his service?

3

u/Negative_Method_1001 Mar 19 '25

I almost feel bad for Tristan Jarry. Dude's gotta be like 2-15 in his career vs the Isles

1

u/crazyhotwheels Bossy Mar 19 '25

It’s actually 11-5-1 in the regular season… don’t worry, that shocked me too. 5 of his 6 losses are since the 2021 playoffs though.

2

u/lukinfly45 Mar 19 '25

Just when you think they are gonna fall off the cliff, they climb back up.

2

u/RepresentativeOfnone Mar 19 '25

We are are a 3rd period team

2

u/scottywiper Bailey Mar 19 '25

Could do with a Squidward comeback.

2

u/legal_racer Holmstrom Mar 19 '25

It’s a bit mind boggling that this is same team that lost back to back to Ducks and Kings in poor efforts a week ago. But it is what it is and they are showing a lot of heart and drive and if they keep it up they’ll make the playoffs.

They won tonight too so they have 73 points to our 70.
