It was the least impressive game yet in the career of John Tavares. The Islanders were flat and were never in this one. JT looked like he might of been feeling the effects of the hit he received last night from Carolina D-man Andrew Alberts. He was a step off of the puck and couldn't create much.
Of course the Islanders incredibly weak offensive depth was exploited without Tavares' A game. Captain Doug Weight missed another game, Kyle Okposo was ineffective and the defense was in an especially giving mood tonight.
They might want to burn the tape on this one as they will have one day to prepare for Alexander the Great coming to the Island Saturday night.
