Nino is likely the most interesting roster decision next season to deal with.

Maybe. Even with Cizikas court issues dropping his draft spot, Nelson was still the better prospect come draft time and even through ahl rookie years arguably.

Marginally. More like their plethora of young prospect goalie and fasth altogether make hiller more available.

Oh I hear you, and thanks for posting that Staple quote. It's just that the most easily replaceable ufa we had just got resigned. lol

I'm glad to see we resigned the most important ufa immediately.

Even more hilariously, arguably one of the best power forwards of all time was originally a competitive swimmer(Duncan).

Perennial is the key word there though. So how do you solve that problem longterm then?
Commented on Islanders Bits: Anonymous people say things about Ratner's Coliseum plan on May 17 2013, 10:17a
I don't like it either. This suspension is sort of Shanaban feeling like he's done his job now for the playoffs when we all know how lax he's been in the past.

Well, the 2nd round is going to be 3-6gms suspension for him. If the playoff to regular season exchange rate is in play, that's a lot of games.

I can't think of any close names to visnovsky of a center that he'd be screwed up with.
Commented on Islanders Bits: Anonymous people say things about Ratner's Coliseum plan on May 16 2013, 10:01p
By far too. Without him=no playoffs.

Yes. He's been arguably our best d-man last season. Possession beast.

I know this is a joke, but Miller has never looked that bad.
Commented on Islanders Bits: Anonymous people say things about Ratner's Coliseum plan on May 16 2013, 9:51p
Yeah, can't be much more than a 2nd or 3rd rounder I'd expect.

Nice work, although you wonder if Yzerman is going to do the "collect all goalies/goalie prospects" approach to solve that problem for the bolts.

The big question is do the isles think the time is now.
Commented on Islanders Breakup Day: Lessons learned, horizons expanded on May 15 2013, 6:57p - 1 reply
Yeah, I don't think Emery or Smith are proven good enough to merit more than $3mil/yr long term, maybe $4mil/yr short term.

He's very emotional, if that's what you mean.

"Hiller's not great", well, before the vertigo season, Hiller was arguably the/one of the most consistent elite goalies in the nhl.

Unless we are going the UFA, anything is going to cost us picks.
Commented on Islanders Breakup Day: Lessons learned, horizons expanded on May 15 2013, 12:38p
No. I'd like to have Miller in an isles jersey too. He's been a top 10 workhorse starting goalie most of his career.

Sharks in 6. Ironically, all but 1 of my east picks were wrong but all my west picks were right. So I'll stick to my original picks for now.

So what would they do? Callups from the ECHL or Juniors?

"The kids should be up next year ", Who do you predict in opening day lineup that didn't play over a handful of nhl games last season?
Commented on Islanders 2012-13 Reflections: Not Disappointed on May 14 2013, 12:17p
Good write-up. I am the opposite of disappointed. I really can't believe how much they overachieved.
Commented on Islanders 2012-13 Reflections: Not Disappointed on May 14 2013, 11:42a
Thanks to all. It's been an awesome season and I can't wait to watch more playoff hockey and all the fun summer talk/fanposts/debates/activities. :-)

Amen. I really wonder what they are going to do about Nabby.

What did Roenick do/say? I missed something.

I'll agree. Ovy probably deserves it more. 4goals and 9pts may not seem like too big of a gap,

Yeah, Hickey wanted to play the body, ended up playing a poor cross check while viz was going for a hook, and both got toasted.

I've been really busy, but still watching everything. Do you guys think the isles were 2 different teams last night? One prior to the first 2 second period goals and a different one after?

Seriously. I guess this guy has never been to a pens/flyers game in the flyers home arena? lol
Commented on Islanders Bits: Game 3 reactions, NHL playoff chaos, World Championships on May 6 2013, 1:11p
The 1 real excuse pens writers keep making that is irrational at best is that the pens have more talent than us and we should have been swept or at most taken in 5.

Absolutely, great observation. If their powerplay wasn't rolling right now in this series, we'd easily be up 2-1 right now.
Commented on Islanders Bits: Game 3 reactions, NHL playoff chaos, World Championships on May 6 2013, 12:41p
With our team, I'd say at least 4 seed too, and 4 seed only bc the pens.

That too. Seriously, put Garth's brain in Nabby before next game.
Commented on Islanders vs. Penguins Game 3 Post-Game Instant Reaction on May 5 2013, 5:40p
That's actually a tough one. The flower literally threw 2 pucks in the net for us as goals, but Nabby has been awful and probably wouldn't look better against JT + Crew.
Commented on Islanders vs. Penguins Game 3 Post-Game Instant Reaction on May 5 2013, 5:39p
No excuse for Nabby, just saying.
