I?m doing a game writhe up on Toronto ?cose I just can get an old on this team. Each time they find a way to get out of a system play and that gets on my nerves. In no means this is a way to get a confirmation on a strong play and what ever the conclusion may be?.play it safe.
After starting strong on the "under" NYI is looking more and more at the over side.
May be I am wrong but this looks like a coach who started the year very concern about defensive play, knowing he had the offensive tools anyways, and who is now saying, well we are winning scoring goals; just have fun guys.
On the other side the Toronto (which team will show up) maple leaf
The way i read the "who will show up team" is that they play on offense when they are going against a bad goaly or bad deff team and they are defensive minded when playing against a good one. Identity problem, I don?t know and I have no numbers to back just my read on this team only.
Interesting stats to take note of:
Toronto, when scoring 3 goals are (4-1), when scoring 5 goals are (1-0) and when scoring 6 or more 2-0. Toronto scoring 3 goals or more is 7-1. NYISL is giving more than 3 goals in less than 39% of the games, but did so in 5 of last 7 which is a let downSo, toronto is winning those games 3 goals or more games but new York is not allowing opponents to score that many goals except in recent meetings. On the other hand when toronto is scoring 2 or less goals they have 1win-7loss. NYISL, this year, is giving two goals or less in 61% of its game.
On the NYISL side, they have win 11 in 12 when scoring 3 goals or more; we are looking at a 91% average.
Offense has been down a little bit lately (2.4), although they average ?3.00 goal for? on the year. .Captain Michael Peca was concerned during the team's slide that players were deferring too much to Yashin and waiting for him to make something happen.
Toronto gives 3 goals or more in only 27% of the games, and whit Cujo Olympic oriented state of mind looks for this stats to continue ion the coming weeks and in this game.
Cujo didn't start in last meeting so he should be focus in this one, but i have to mention that has an underdog is save percentage is .878, being 2-3-1. He has been good in last 8 outing G.A.A is 1.60. Overall Toronto on the road is 2?o?-6?u?
NYISL is in a bad spot when they score 2 goals or less in a game; they are 2 win and 4 loss in that position.
. Osgood is receiving bravo from everywhere but the guy only average .867, he is winning the games or is the offense winning it for him.
Spirits are up again around the Nyils team following Monday's, which ended a five-game winless streak and capped a rough five-game road trip. The Islanders finished the trip 1-3-1. They won against Dallas and Colorado wich are both struggling lately.
A positive new player arrival is always good for a team and Lumme was wearing a wide smile when he arrived at a Long Island hotel just before the dinner hour yesterday. Interesting note Lumme's wife, Minna, wasn't hot on the idea of her husband continuing his NHL career in the U.S. Her fear of flying was exacerbated with the Sept. 11
This one is not a system play, there will be other easier than this one on the board but if you want to give it a shut i would take the under and leaning towards Toronto, something like 2-1.
