Five stitches for Nelson, #Isles say he'll be back out for 3rd period. Deep, cleansing breaths, everyone.

I think Nelson will be one of the top 5 guys on the team this year...

The more I watch him the more I'm impressed

I just dont get fired up for preseason. Trust me next week if this happens I'll be right next to you with the pitchforks. The D was horrible because they played bad not because of the system. They were where they needed to be they just sucked. Pedan Mayfield Donovan Czchuman all need more time in BP some more then others thats for sure

Im not fired up. The games ive watched there didnt seem to be system. If it was the players in this one thats different. Hopefully they execute next friday and capuano raises their battle level.

We dont have a first or second in this upcoming draft right? I know we dont have a first but we didnt get a second from anyone did we? From Philly for amac?

cap geek says the hawks are $2.1 million over the cap...Leddy makes $2.7 million....so it will have to be a pick and a prospect I would think...also, do the Islanders want to take back salary?

One of snows best trades next to the campoli one. What made it great was keeping amac in our division.

I wouldn't be surprised if Garth during the season trades someone on the roster for a 2015 2nd rd pick...then he'll do his annual trade of two 2nd rd picks for a late number 1 pick at the draft...
