Game Overview:
It looks like the Bruins are dressing most of their star, everyday players that won them a Stanley Cup and are putting Vezina winning goaltender Timmy Thomas in the pipes...the Islanders on the other hand have maybe six regulars on the trip. This will be a rough game for these Islander players, expect some big numbers by the Bruins.

UPDATE-9/24/11-1:00PM:
Post Game Review: During the 1st period, the Islanders were playing great. Some solid play on both sides of the puck and a real controlling tempo by the Isles. Unfortunately that changed as soon as the 2nd period began. The Islanders looked tired and beat down, and the Bruins looked upbeat. They took control of the game and followed through on my prediction.
Positives:
Jeremy Colliton: Before getting injured, he looked very good. He was forechecking hard and playing hard on both sides of the puck.
Trevor Frischmon: Threw his body around and crashed the net hard. Him along with Colliton, did a great job forechecking.
Michael Haley: Made some sick passes, and showed some real offensive vision. Along with that, he impressed me greatly in his own zone. Back checked hard and forced quite a few turnovers. Played his normal physical style, but seemed much more well rounded.
Calvin de Haan: Looked so poised out there, and moved the puck well because of it. Also played really well in his own zone. Reminded me a bit of Andrew MacDonald.
Steve Staios: He was the best Islander in my opinion. He worked ridiculously hard and gave everything he had. He was very physical, and he was able to protect his net well. He did NOT look like a 38 year old at all. Really liking him.
Rick DiPietro: During the 1st period, he looked very good and comfortable. The 2nd period was not as good, but it was still not awful. The only real problem I saw was when he was up against the post and a Bruin was on the short-side.
Dylan Reese: Showed off a sick shot that I had no clue he had. His play in the offensive zone was impressive, but he looked a little shaky in his own end.
Negatives:
Anders Nilsson: Looked uncomfortable out there, but honestly I wouldn't be too concerned.
