Projected Defense Pairings:

Ocho Cinco gets the start between the pipes. Hammer skated this morning but is not deemed ready to go but is real close. Bailey will take a little longer but made the trip.

Stealthily attacking
By-Tor slays his foe
The men are free to run now
From labyrinths below
The Wraith of Necromancer
Shadows through the sky
Another land to darken
With evil prism eye...

Nice deep booger pick in the background too. Hahahaha



You can still see his whole finger. That's a snot rocket, not a booger pick. Leave it to a fishstick fan to not know the difference.
If he is not buried to the first knuckle

Sucks. I gave him support last year as there were many holes to fill. This year with talent brought in, same mistakes and lackadaisical efforts is showing. Its bad news. Its time to make the change. As that article says...why have ocho cinco play as much.
Need to beat the Sharks tomorrow night.

Could be in our top 4 dmen. Sorry but viz, de haan and strait have been awful. They have 0 nasty in them. Smurf dmen all around and we wonder why we get outmuscled. The best part was last night on one play 2 a s fwds crashed thr net and were on top of Johnson and Strait and De Haan were trying to hold them up. Fucking give them a stick, start some shit. Every team knows the isles D isnt going to do anything to them in front

Kostka is awful. I'd give him to you guys for a bag of pucks.

Hits the nail on the head.

Was great.
Just like Rick and Ilsa will always have Paris....

Styx fans will always have October. Cherish it.
Its amazing the amount of trolling the Rags fans do on an Isles thread

Guess that one cup 20 years ago wasn't enough to kill the massive inferiority complex built up some 40 years ago.
we have one game in like 9 days  
Greg from LI : 10/31/2014 2:48 pm : link
We're bored
Strait may as well sit down at center ice when its time for his shift  
BlueHurricane : 10/31/2014 2:49 pm : link
He would do a much better job just sitting there and yelling at the opposing team as they skate by then he does actually trying to play defense. Plus he would have no chance of screening his goalie or kicking a puck into his own net.

If it makes you feel better, I was born right at the close of the Icelander dynasty so basically they have sucked complete ass for my entire life as a hockey fan and was never able to build up a complex towards them. :(

The Devils, on the other hand...

God, I fucking hate that team.
way back when....  
Greg from LI : 10/31/2014 3:01 pm : link
I was just a young tyke in elementary school in Levittown in 1981-1984 (at which point we moved to Virginia), and I'm pretty sure I was the only kid at St. Bernard's who was a Ranger fan.
Holy shit to this Brian Strait stat from the article:

One major reinforcement is on the way, and that’s Travis Hamonic. This is a welcome development, because the Islanders have given up 36 goals this season and Brian Strait’s been on the ice for 15 of them.


Keep in mind, Strait rarely plays the PK, so that stat likely translates to him being on the ice for like 15 of 28 regular strength goals or something like that. And his minutes are limited to begin with.

That's unreal.

Yep......... I can't wrap my head around the fact he is getting ice time. I think he went to the Tom Quinn school of private investigation and evidence gathering.
I realize  
Metnut : 10/31/2014 3:14 pm : link
that de Haan hasn't been great, but he's probably still getting up to speed after a training camp injury and is too young to be asked to carry dead weight like Strait. Pairing him with Hamonic will be a big help.

I'm surprised Cappy hasn't given Donovan even a single game yet considering how bad Strait has been.
Take the 1st goal last night for example  
Dave M : 10/31/2014 3:19 pm : link
Yes de Haan got beat by Duchesne but Duchesne beats many dmen. Strait doesn't even start to go in front (because he's too busy double teaming a guy on the boards) until the av player was receiving the pass. Also on Mackinnon's 2nd goal Strait wad late into the d zone and just gave a weak swipe at his stick and you know what happened. That's every night. He's a bum.
Great article  
Fish : 10/31/2014 3:41 pm : link
which spews everything we have been saying during these last 2 games. Cappy will not have a job if they swoon here. 3 more losses and he is done. If articles are being written then you know.
looks like Conacher off top line  
Dave M : 10/31/2014 5:44 pm : link
Nelsen practiced with L1. Hamonic skated with De haan.
I'll be rooting for you boys to go 1-1-1
