I currently live in Alden, NY, so I know just how much snow fell in such little time, it was crazy. Family is wellstocked on food and water thankfully, but 2 days on a driving ban so far and the most exposure we have had was removing nearly 4 feet of snow down the long driveway (and on top of my car!) is giving us cabin fever!

Not all bad though, I am getting paid to stay at home with the family, read, and watch hockey!

One of the Sabres posters may be your neighbor then. He was talking about the snowfall in Alden

I wish all Metro teams would work on upgrading their defense like that.

Maybe we can trade Strait for a 2nd round pick?

Strait would look great in the orange and black.

My cousin lives in Buffalo and I found this on Reddit and thought I was all clever sending it to him...only for him to burst my bubble and tell me he's seen it 20x already

I saw that one last year, but it's still funny as hell.

And I miss Wegmans so bad....

Bob McKenzie just destroyed Milbury

Milbury: "Brendan Shanahan has never been a coach, never been a GM, so he's doing this on the fly. He jumped right to the presidency...I wish I had done that."

Bob: "So do the Islanders."

It's so hard not to like McKenzie. Guy is money with any insider info he ever releases. Hands down the most credible guy and as classy as a media guy can be. And now that dig just sent him to a whole new level of awesome

Random thought I wanna toss in. I think Grabovski and Kulemin have been such underrated signings. They're not blowing away the stat sheets, but they're scoring when it MATTERS and they're defense has been stellar. They've been a pleasure to watch.

I dont think theyre underrated by most fans. I also dont think a lot of people realized how important that depth was up front? I honestly was nor focused on the back end but loved the signings. The defense was a more glaring need but they've been huge for us.

Grabovski and Kulemin know what they're doing when the puck goes the other way. Signing them wasn't about bringing in just offense. It helped in all three zones. I think we'll get rare universal Islanders-fan agreement about those two being key signings.

I knew grabovski was good but Kulemin has really surprised me. Guys like him are what win playoff games. Very very impressed with his game.

By our fans, I agree that most feel they are not underrated. But other teams fans laughed at us giving them both 4+ million. But the 2 dimensional game they both bring has been worth every penny. Between those 2, boychuk, and leddy, our transitional game has been improved exponentially. I love seeing these guys on the ice.
