So what are we gonna do....trade Mez? trade Kimmo?
- Just5

I actually wouldn't be entirely surprised to see us hold onto Mesz with his improved play.

If I had to guess Downie gets moved for a pick and we move a pick for a 4th liner. Not very exciting stuff.

If I was an opposing Coach. I would tell my players don't get in Claude Giroux's face and piss him off!

There is so much hate on the Islanders thread for Andy Macdonald

They are comparing him with Bruno Gervais

Mark Streit was also the worst thing ever in their eyes the second they traded him...

I remember

I know I'm dating myself
But yeh it was kinda shocking in those days

- Marc D


I only remember it because we saw him doing a remote at the NJ State Fair, and kids were yelling Hamster at him and he got visibly upset.

Replying to a comment like "He was horrible" today with, "He played better as the game went on" suggests he stepped up his game and was playing at an acceptable level. He wasn't. He was being used a lot more sparingly and not being used enough to really say that he was playing better.

So, yes, with a third less ice time in the second and two thirds less in the third, he avoided making mistakes that led to goals against. Forgive me for not being satisfied with that kind of performance or upgrading my assessment of his play today from horrible.

- Jsaquella


No that comment does not suggest that he was playing at an acceptable level. It suggests exactly what it says. That he improved from a very poor first period, and got better. Nor did it state that anyone was satisfied with his play overall in the game or in any part of the Season. I think although there has been some games where he has played well, overall his play this Season has been disappointing.

That's an interesting phenomenon in the world of fandom. Most players traded away from their team, instantly suck!

People who are into advanced stats hate him. They see him as a smaller, more mobile Grossmann.

I know.....I'm not sure if I can blame them for not trading Mez. The East is wide open. Thats a big deal

Ive never seen Chara down on the ice half as much as this year. His reign of terror is finally coming to an end.
