Islanders Drop 2nd In A Row

The Islanders were defeated by the Devils 2-1 tonight.

It was pretty much a game straight out of Devils Coach Jacque Lemaire playbook, meaning it was boring as hell.

Franz Nielsen scored the first goal of the game in period 1 but the Devils were able to score on two long drives in the second which decided the contest.

John Tavares had some chances but was unable to cash in.

The Isles offense in general has been stagnant over the last two games. Not helping matters any is the potential loss of defenseman Radek Martinek late in the third with an apparent knee injury.

Back to Long Island tomorrow to face the Kovalchuk-less Thrashers.
