Kindlyrick am I going to have to break out my Jedi mind powers on Wang? You will sell this team to Patty L now. You are not looking for 300 million. Patty L is the owner you are looking for.

I would be estatic if this happened just like everyone else but I'm having a hard time believing/seeing it. Especially him selling the team to Lafontaine who he seems to have an incredible amount of hatred for? Let's not get ahead of ourselves and lose sight of the enormous ego Charlie Chan has.

Cptmjl why must you and kindlyrick use logic? My force powers do not respond to logic. Wang will sell to Patty. It is his destiny.

Yeah it looks sick. One of my friends plays in Laffer's tournament every year, the Williams Lake Cup. A few years back Dennis Leary had a team play. I know Shanahan and Grant Marshall have both played in years past.

I've been trying to weasel my way into playing there somehow, with zero luck

I wanna know where the NYPOST even got this ridic story. Wang wont even mention Lafontaines name at the coliseum, but he's gonna negotiate the sale of the team with him???

I dont think it would make sense to sell when the lease is up. Thats when he can turn the profit around. Hes taken the pain already for the last 10 years. It would make sense for him to move the team before selling it.
- kindlyrick



Only problem is the NHL is not just gonna let him move the team to where ever he wants. I honestly think he would sell the team before he would move them out of NY. I think being a Long Island guy he wouldn't want to be the guy who moved the Islanders out of NY, just my opinion

Money talks!

I still think its mostly BS though. Like the rumor I heard from a ticket sales exec a few years ago that a group of rabbis were putting together some offer to buy the team

Yes.. they split ways after the Smith firing.. but what makes you think that Wang HATES LaFontaine and would never do business with him & vice versa?

After reading countless articles stating that Wang despises him and won't allow him into the coliseum. Reading one where he was actually barred from the coliseum. I don't think they'll be doing buisness together anytime soon.

Thank you. Patty wants nothing to do with the isles until Wang is gone. Lets see Patty is in the NHL HOF but he is not good enough for Wangs HOF Absolute joke. SELL THE TEAM CHARLIE!!!!!

Ive never read anywhere that Wang despises, or even dislikes LaFontaine. I never heard he was barred either.. he asked for a credential to meet Brian Burke at the NVMC & the Isles denied him the credential, but he wasn't barred.. he still entered the building & met Burke... Burke had to get him a ticket thou.

I dont know if you know.. Pat LaFontaine is my god... He is my all time fav player & in my eyes can do no wrong. So im not sticking up for Wang, if Wang does/did Patty dirty.. Charlie can eat shlt & die... but I just have never heard about it.

Also.. you seriously think that if Wang did hate LaFontaine... If he did... and he were selling the team... he would turn away selling it to a a group with LaFontaine in it.. because of that hatred? Seriously??

On point one...that is the very definition of a "dig." If everything was all sunshine and rainbows between the two, Patty wouldn't need a ticket to meet with someone at the Coliseum.

On point two, I agree completely. There are people I haven't spoken to for years, and with good reason. If one of them contacted me to severely overpay me for one of my guitars, I'd be more than happy to take some money from them!
