Blocked FG's

The call to kick it was right. We had enough 'play not to lose'  calls in the past. However the ST play on FGs is absolutely unacceptable. 

Ron called out the very troubling issue of blocked FGs.  I'm sure it will now receive priority attention and they'll make changes.

But it's great to see improvement in all other aspects of ST.  We've won field position battles in quite a big way last week and this week.  Our returns our better, our coverage is better, and Nortmann's punting today was AMAZING.  STs are improving.  Thankfully the blocked field goals did not cost us either game.

Why was that even kicked!  Run on third down and take out the 2 minute warning, Pin them deep on a punt, and go to war...Worst play calling at the worst possible time..Straight stupid

Because NOT going for the FG with a 7 pt lead and ending the game would have been a catastrophically stupid decision....go back to playing Madden.

    • Miller didn't get the player or the puck ... Liability on the ice.  Teams are starting to pursue him behind the net and aggressively chase him down.  Slow and awkward ... Something needs to be done if this continues to the playoffs.  
    • That said, I was silently hoping the Canes would go after him in free agency a couple years ago. I still think several guys on the Islander roster would fit well in Raleigh.
    • I was initially a fan of going after Giannis.  But looking at this draft class and some others that could be available via trade - I think I’m leaning towards staying the course. The OKC model is land on your draft picks, develop your stars and depth, and stockpile future picks. Especially as a smaller market, we can’t afford paying everyone like superstars.  Coby will need to get paid this offseason.  Miler will need a new contract soon, as well as Moose and Miles.  And then you gotta pay Kon at some point and the other rookies. Our depth right now really sets apart - especially when injuries inevitably happen. If we can get someone like Yaxel or Koa Peat (both playing tonight) and another big, we should be set for a long time.
