“When the games get ramped up we haven’t been too small about them. We haven’t flinched. We haven’t gotten too high or too low and that’s what we need to do. Just go about our business, play our game, play with commitment and work ethic and we’ll get results.” #Isles pic.twitter.com/e4VcAGaYkG

#NYI #isles Agree with Trotz comments, players are buying in but have long memories of past here (so do fans like me) and when they give up 16 shot in first and some big chances, then settle down it's still a long term process to change the mindset, you want low pressure wins.

#NYI #isles What's been odd for me is you expect them to have the mindset to handle first ok and third would be the time you expect problems as pressure goes up, but it's really been opposite where they get stronger late, and start slow.

#NYI #isles I don't know if this strategy holds over 82 games & it will take more 5/5 scoring, some easier wins, and how to bounce back when team slumps, but I do know last year at 8 over had no chance to hold up when ppl were thrilled and not noticing g/quality shots against.
