Either way he's not firing him. At least not until it makes zero difference.

Speculation yes but ill go with my gut and the fact that Snow isn't too bright. Frustration has nothing to do with it. At this point it might even be too late so its kind of a safe prediction. Something shouldve been done seven games ago. Absolute joke at this point capped off with their last game.

Doesn't sound like theyd be able to hold their own defensively, yet. need some more experience on that line.

So they would be no different then any of the other 3 lines.

It a shame because there should be plenty to talk about like a new coach or a couple of new dmen. Instead, ownership and management rather wait until the season is lost before making changes.

I cannot believe the big crowd for the Wings game. Who is going to see this team play? There needs to be 5,000 people showing up.

After that game and the one against the Caps recently you can bet there will be nobody going to games and rightfully so. What kind of person wants to watch this shat? I'm a die hard, we all are on here but going to watch these clowns is the furthest thing from my mind. They don't deserve a crowd let alone one that supports them. Like i've said before, they don't care why should we?

Just think you are going to see them not hit, fight, or play defense. It sounds great. Let all the other teams fans show up. The fans should be pissed the offseason after making the playoffs for the 1st time in years, nothing was done to improve the team.

What about Bouchard and Regin? . Still find it hysterical that people were bashing me for calling both of those signings stupid. Bouchard has been on decline for years now and Regin was a joke signing without debate from day one. "Well look at what Snow did with Moulson" "Snow signed Grabner and PA" ETC, we've all heard this BS before. Absolute joke that Snow did jack shat this offseason anmd went into camp with Nabby after the PO's when Schneider, Bernier, Emery, etc were available. The defense is a joke as we all know. Using the, "what it if there wasn't anyone available" or the "we didn't have what they wanted" argument is so lame and such an Islander fan trying to justify Snow's stupidity kind of debate. A smart decent GM would've had made one or all of the above happen and anyone who thinks different is fooling themselves. How about this one. How about Snow is a shatty GM and doesn't know his a$$ from his elbow? How about he gets zero respect from anyone in the NHL and rightfully so? That's the real problem. Always has been and always will be.

I was also bashed for not liking the PMB and Regin signings. I just love the "what it if there wasn't anyone available" argument. Isles have all these prospects and picks and cannot come up with a better D and goalie? They have one of the top prospect pools in hockey and other teams do not want any of these players? People can bash Cappy and Wang all day, but do not even think about going after Garth. You will be attacked big time.

Truer words were never spoken. But, as we all know, no money will be spent until they move to Brooklyn.

Anyone can go ahead, there's nothing left to defend. I think it's hysterical how there are still a few people that defend him? I also love when people say how smart he is. What makes them think this? I haven't seen any evidence of it?

True about Brooklyn. The only problem is other GM's in hockey and other sports have managed a lot better with very small resources. This is not new to the Islanders. I have a hard time believing if Snow goes to Wang and tells him we really need this player that Wang will say no.

Why and what makes you think they will start spending when they get to Brooklyn? Also, I think the problem is more what they spend money on then not spending money?

This is changing VERY quickly. In my group of friends, it has ALREADY changed. Wouldn't be surprised to hear SNOW MUST GO chants at the Coliseum.

They'll be just as effective as the Milbury chants before him. If there was ever a team that doesn't give a shat about their fan base or what they think it'd be this one.

Because at that time, Wang should have or will be getting ready to sell the team. The new owner, unhindered by all the crap that has gone on in Nassau, will want a winner.
