They endorsed a fan that was thankful for Lee's time in Bridgeport and that's insulting to the Islanders?

I took it as he was there for too long and the isles didnt bring him up when was ready. Reading it again, I may have mis read it, I'm a moron

Not at all, I was just confused as to what you meant.

I also took it that the Isles left him down too long?

I don't know, guys, I think Strome looks fine out there...
- UIF

He does but then he looks a little late with his decision making at times IMO. He's right there. Not saying he's playing bad you just see he's adjusting but still playing a responsible game. I haven't been watching this game to much honestly tonight. Fast forwarded through a bit earlier.

This team has (frank)ed with our heads so long, we SHOULD read into everything.

Hard not to potvin. We have to question everything.

It was the Sound Tigers' play-by-play man, actually. I don't think he meant it sarcastically.

He the absolute worst. Don't know if you're watching, but at one point in the last period he goes.."and the Islanders continue losing..I mean winning" He literally forgot how the team whose games he gets paid to call was doing in a game he was currently calling.

Honestly, hes worth keeping the game on, you never know what hes gonna say

Sometimes that definitely is the case. Other times it's just another one of an infinite amount of Islanders-fan face palm moments.

#Isles blow two-goal lead for 13th time this season (they've lost NHL-high 10 games when leading by 2).

Now Thats a scrap

Nabokov is terrible. What a freaking waste of space. His positioning is so off

Who cares. I don't care if Nabokov takes a dump in the crease, sticks a candle in it and skates off the ice in the middle of a play.

But only when he went down did the isles get in trouble in goal. Not that I like poulin but they had their best stretch of the year when nabby got hurt then2nd time

somebody take nielsen's stick from his ass.......

I'd much rather run that pick up and give it to buffalo. Starting to accept that just isn't goong to happen

the play in OT just confirmed that Donovan and Strait dont belong in the NHL.

- ziggy_skalica

Yup

Most of games blown is because cappy doesn't know how to make adjustments and other teams do. Isles play same breakout play and how they set up in zone is exactly the same every time.

However Last nights game was on nabby. All three goals were lame. Scivvons got better as game went on. Also isles did what they always do up 2 goals and sit on heels.

As bad as it seems, like I said to start the season , if snow had gone out and got a legit NHL dman, a goalie and a coach we would be a playoff team this year.

Great blog. But beware... refusing to show up to see a team that ownership and management put a half-assed effort into putting on the ice will get your fan base a negative reputation. When the pens fans refused to patronize their team in mid 2000's for that reason they got a rep as bandwagon fans. I'm with you though... send a message... hit em where it hurts... the pocketbook.

Chris...as you know the Islanders fan base couldn't be any more loyal to the brand, and yes the kids that are stuck playing for this disaster. We must remove ourselves from the building...but unfortunately that will never happen. Charles is the most smug owner that ever lived...and Snow, can only laugh at his decision. As long as they own the team, nothing will ever ever change. A quality owner would face the music, and face his fans,,,but not Charles, he's just given us the finger.
