8:55 to play in the third. #Isles are down 3-1.
Lee off for holding right off the o-zone face-off with 13:48 to play in the third. Down 3-1. #Isles
Isles down 3-1 at 6:12 of the third and Habs going on the PP with Lee to the box for an O-Zone interference penalty
Fasching did not come out for the third, so #Isles are playing with 11 forwards, since 12:18 to play in the second.
Barzal gets interfered with by WIFI (Xhekaj nickname), and #Isles are going back on the PP with 6:20 to play in the second, down 3-1.
Xhekaj to the box for interference at 13:40 of the second, Isles down 3-1
MacLean off for tripping with 9:59 to go in the second. #Isles down 3-1. First penalty of his career.
Fasching gets on a breakaway but can't make final move for goal. Had it. #Isles
You hate to use the word laziness in just #Isles third game under Roy but with failed line changes, missed passes and a lot of weaker, lackadaisical decisions…not good for a team who showed a ton of energy last two games.
Well...that was horrific for #Isles. Down 3-0. Looks like a team that forgot how to hockey for much of that first 20 minutes. So many turnovers. So many missed passes. Completely out of sync. Team failures.
Disastrous first period for the #Isles in Montreal. They trail 3-0 after giving up a barrage of high-danger chances, all while losing the special teams battle. The Canadiens will start the second with around 50 seconds of power play time.
Nightmare start for Islanders in Patrick Roy's return to Montreal. Down 3-0 12:19 into the game. Calls timeout.
Roy calls timeout after Islanders fall behind 3-0 at 12:19 of the first period. Bell Centre is buzzing -- not in a good way for New York.
Horvat draws a hooking call against Harvey-Pinard at 9:52 of the first and Isles, down 1-0, going on their first PP
After turning it oer earlier in the shift, Fasching goes off for delay of game with 13:42 to play in the first. #Isles
Bo Horvat first #Isles on the ice for practice today (followed closely by Mat Barzal). Good sign after Horvat took puck to face in last minute last night.
Bo Horvat is on the ice, not wearing a face shield. #Isles
#Isles took strides in certain areas, but turnovers in key moments came back to bite them in a 3-2 loss to #VegasBorn. Postgame video included @TheHockeyNews https://t.co/1WOpT9sTSh
#Isles fall 3-2 for first loss with Roy behind bench. Failed to capitalize on their chances. Too many mistakes and #VegasBorn made them pay.
Horvat takes a puck to the face. He's bleeding as he'll go to the locker room with 30.9 seconds to play in the third. #Isles
Barzal trips Hague in the corner to end the New York power play. 4-on-4 for 33 seconds.
Barzal trips up Hague. Takes the Islanders off the power play. 4v4 for 33 seconds. Then, a Vegas power play.
Barzal with the trip. we're 4-on-4 for 32 seconds, then Vegas to PP. 5:1 to go.
Barbashev didn't like that one. Claimed Aho grabbed his stick, but he's off for holding. Islanders getting their third power play of the period with a chance to tie.
Aho draws his second penalty this period as Isles back to the PP at 13:21 of the third, down 3-2, Barbashev off for holding
Aho draws his second D-zone penalty of the period, #Isles power play with 6:39 left
Sorokin flashes the leather to keep #Isles down by just one with 9:12 to play in the third.
Pageau shorty (Martin in box) gets the Isles closer. Now 3-2 Vegas mid-3rd.
Holmstrom to Pageau, shorthanded goal and the #Isles are within 3-2 at 9:26 of the third. That's just the second shorthanded goal Vegas has allowed this season
Shorty for the Islanders. JG Pageau. 3-2 Vegas.
Martin to the box for holding with 11:06 to play in the third, with #Isles down 3-1.
