Islanders website: Has the early recap of tonight's 3-1 loss to the Los Angeles Kings.
NYI Fan Central Comments:
No fault on Dubie here, he gave his team a chance to win but once again this team simply cannot score or work hard enough to force the opposition into mistakes. It looked like hard word for the Islanders tonight and a team that did not seem very enthusiastic outside of the work that led to Berard's goal. They are not drawing many powerplays either.
Everything this year's team was advertised to be is just not happening most nights these days.
First period most of the shots came from the defense.
Cannot improve on what Ted Nolan said himself about his team: Lethargic, unacceptable, no energy, cannot expect to win or entertain with that effort.
Looks like a team in need of a shakeup, some players are not meriting their
ice-time. Labarbera did not have to be very good until a few saves in the third period.
Welcome to last place in the division and out of a playoff spot.
More tomorrow.
