A positionally sound non-scoring, but smooth skating and passing blueliner wouldn't stand out.

I hear ya, but Donovan might come close to replacing Streit. We don't know and we need to find out.
Commented on Islanders Bits: Streit's other foot out the door; DiPietro's status; Visors in the NHL on Jun 5 2013, 10:15a
I agree, but do you think we should have held on to Streit at that money and years when we have someone we need to see whether he can fill those shoes?

He will be missed, but put Donovan in and the money saved on a goaltenda and we're better off.

A pretty insignificant clown move. One year at league minimum.
Commented on Islanders Bits: Streit's other foot out the door; DiPietro's status; Visors in the NHL on Jun 4 2013, 8:43p
We do know that at most it would have been a late 1st or much more likely a 2nd rounder.

I'm tired of this argument. With PAP I can see it to a degree, but sometimes you have to hold on given the situation.
Commented on Islanders Bits: Streit's other foot out the door; DiPietro's status; Visors in the NHL on Jun 4 2013, 7:47p
Crazy we offered Streit 3 years 15mil......and even crazier to think he'll probably get a tad more than that.

I agree, assist machine that can do some of the work so that Strome and JT can roam is what we need.

de Haan is a bit of wild card too, although injuries at this point are more than a bit worrisome........and they might take a long look at Reinhart in camp.

Yup, but we'll know in a year. For now, he's 25th on my list because he's talented and could play in the NHL right now.

I don't disagree, but outside Grabner and the Pandolfo effect you basically wanted to void what the rest of the bottom 6 gave us this season compared to last season.

So, you willing to admit the bottom six played an equal amount in the team's improvement as the defense did?
