First, Arthur and Grabs talk about the Isles tough start to the season, dropping their first two games to the Carolina Hurricanes and Florida Panthers respectively, and discuss some inconsistencies in their game, the impact of Matt Martin’s absence, Anders Lee’s return following season-ending ACL surgery last year, and more.
Then, the guys talk about Zdeno Chara still figuring out the Islanders system, Semyon Varlamov’s imminent return, Ilya Sorokin’s inability to make a big save after a defensive breakdown, Brocktober in full effect, and Adam Pelech having not been on the ice for a goal against yet this season.
Plus, to close the show, the guys touch on some topics from around the league and Grabs breaks down a player’s mindset when they’re on a breakaway.
