You know the Oil has been rebuilding for 5 years, they have been sucking the most, and receive the top pick several times.


And they still suck..........

Yeah weird here you have two teams who ruled the 80's but then ever since they have fallen off the face of the NHL cliff

Why the isles will win tonight? Nabby will stand on his head and Ullstrom will have good game.

Its on national TV and if there is one thing isles have done is elevate game against the better teams.

Everyone will be raving on this board and then comes the disappoitment vs Toronto when we get waxed.

That is the life of an Isles Fan.

And Kasper will continue to be the biggest monday morning QB. You have same Hockey IQ as Okposo. Always chasing the play instead of being in it.

I agree, that team defnitely has more clear cut talent then we have though. If Tambellini made a move for a real goaltender and bolstered his Blue line they'd be a legit playoff team. Whitney obviously isn't cutting it.

Haven given up on him just yet. but fact that he looked great in first few games and now is fallen off is a bit concerning. Unlike KO, i think its a fact that puck just hasnt gone in from him yet. He is throwing the body and has had his moments in points in the game.

Btw, please tell me why you think Boyes Nielsen are doing bad? Also what was wrong with Martinek gameplay in the loss other day? please enlighten me.

Bruins 6 Islanders 1 Isles get manhandled and it will sound like another home game for the Bruins. I'm going with my buddy tonight who got great seats for free and I don't even want to go

Still can't put all the blame on Cappy...don't really like him as I've said many times before but the issue is Snow...not that he is as bad as some say but he needs to pull the trigger on somethnig..all cappy can do is change lines around..sure we all can say put this guy here or there and all is well...wrong....still the same guys on the ice..if it was as easy as many here think we would all be coaches. Snow has assets and he sees the guys that are tanking just like cappy. time to make a deal is all 'm saying...not all Jacks fault. He may well want to bring Nino up but we all know Garth and Wang are controlling way too much. Lindy Ruff would be a great coach i'm, sure but in the end when the same guys give 80% who do you all blame then...Ruff right? Pull a deal Snow, shake it up..it is time to do it before the season is done.

But...he doesn't. I don't think anyone's saying the Isles will be the Blackhawks with some line changes, but you have to have at least some level of accountability to get the most out of what you do have. Virtually all of Cappy's decisions seem to reward laziness and reduce the chances of success in a given game.

I've been offered tickets four times and took them only once, all lower bowl center ice. One of those four times I was on call so I could'nt. In other words I understand you completely

One thing Nolan was good at. Did'nt love Nolan's style but the guy could get water from a stone.

It's all Wangs fault. Everything is Wang's fault. New age Islander fan mantra

KO is a skating disaster. I saw him up close and he was wobbly on his feet. He gives the puck away way to much. He did have one good shot though. Also he is way to nice. Apologizing to the goalie for being to close to him and when he brushed him. Really who does that??

Boyes I am one who thinks he is playing well never said he was playing bad. Does he belong on the first line that is debateable but still I like his play so far.

Nielson is not a second line player. He has been doing nothing out there and needs to find his game again. the little thing working against the boards and being in that checking role. Jack has him out of place.

MArtinek I will not answer that guy has a rap sheet a mile long. If he was so great we would have never got rid of him but we did just to take him back to fake an injury and then to come off that fake injury to take the place of a young physical defenseman who was finally playing awesome

LAst time the Islanders had a winning team. Coincidence?? I say not we had a real NHL coach

That's why I went to the one game, to hang with friends i have'nt seen in a while. Had a blast, did'nt watch the game much(thankfully it was painful when i watched it later on the DVR).

Funny I went sunday and did not watch the third period. When people asked why I was not paying attention Is aid because they will lose and I am sick of seeing that. As soon as I said that the Canes scored

I wonder what Bruins will get his first NHL goal tonight?
- Vukota

Whomever they call up from Providence and is playing in his first game will get a hat trick at least

Always liked Martinek, good Dman. Guy just can't stay healthy.
