The Isles suffered yet another disheartening defeat Friday night, this time it was to the Pittsburgh Penguins. They fell 3-2 in overtime after being outplayed for almost the entire 65 minutes. The loss drops them to 5-8-4 and gives them just one win in their last eight games. After tonight, the Isles head out west for their first big road trip of the season, and a possible chance to salvage what has been a miserable season up until this point. Everyone enjoy their weekend and take a look at the top bites from social media during tonight’s defeat:
Hickey hitting everything is my favorite. #isles

Oh boy. Penalty trouble now. Strome with the clumsiest crosscheck I've ever seen #isles
— Eyes on Isles (@eyesonislesFS) November 19, 2016
Considering our special teams any penalty is a really bad idea. #isles

I knew Frans Nielsen was important but I didn't realize he was the fucking epoxy keeping this house of cards upright. #Isles

1 shot 13 min into the game? Not bad. Progress! #isles

See you create chances when you carry the puck in..STOP WITH THE DUMP AND CHASE#isles

This is no longer about Tavares needing a winger. #Isles need several trades. They don’t belong on the ice against the upper echelon. #NYI

All of a sudden it's raining goals. Back-to-back tallies in the span of 45 seconds. 2-1 #isles.

Bojangles for Beauvillier. #Isles

#Isles with a sudden burst of offense. Wonder what was said in the locker room between periods.

This is the most life I’ve seen from the #Isles since the loss in Florida last Saturday.
— Christian Arnold (@C_Arnold01) November 19, 2016
Beauvillier just earned himself a shootout spot for the #isles with the patented Frans backhand
— Greg Mitchell (@MitchSticks22) November 19, 2016
The #isles are one of the most undisciplined teams I have ever seen. Way too many penalties especially in offensive zone.
— Kerrboom (@Kerrboom70) November 19, 2016
The #Isles forwards fall asleep in their own zone way too much.

Better off being 2-2 now rather than with 15 seconds left in the 3rd #Isles

Do you think Cappy will bench you to play 7 D next game? #isles pic.twitter.com/rZ9JphIxjR

Another good kill by #Isles, couple key blocks from Pelech.

#isles trying to pump Halak's stats, taking shots on their own net.

That's an interesting call in a 2-2 game. #Isles getting no breaks from officials, but that's how it goes when you're down the standings.
— Arthur Staple (@StapeNewsday) November 19, 2016
What are they giving away in the penalty box? #isles sure love visiting it.
