I haven't bought in. I see one of the other playoff bubble teams turn it on down the stretch and the Isles finish 9th or 10th. It's nice that they are in the hunt, but I think we are in for a huge let down.

Also Bailey sucks. It's the same old story with him. He has a few good games and the fan-boys come out of the woodwork singing his praises. They he goes back into ghost mode and they all disappear. He will never change. Any "success" he's had this season is 100% a result of playing on JT's wing. JT is still on place to have number slightly lower that previous years.

I'm not so sure that I buy into this Barclays issue the Rangers live in Connecticut the Kings don't live in Downtown LA the Maple Leafs don't live in downtown Toronto at least most of them all these players have to commute into the city to play games Brooklyn is no different it's overblown and it's annoying. This isn't directed at you but the Rangers do the same thing as far as practice and GameDay and you don't hear a word about it its just another reason for people to poop on the isles

Didn't say playoffs just winning currently and what if none of the teams turn it on and they are all what they are like isles ? Someone has to make it might as well be us. As for Bailey he's showing patience in offensive zone however he's offensive in defensive zone

Given the number of teams in the hunt that is highly unlikely. There is some good news - the Isles actually control their own destiny. Here are the teams fighting for the last wild card in order of the maximum number of points they can earn this seasons:

NY Islanders 118
Carolina 117
Florida 116
Philadelphia 115
Detroit 113
Boston 112
New Jersey 112
Buffalo 112
Tampa Bay 110

The Islanders currently have the highest potential. This doesn't take into account toughness of schedule or home vs road games. They may not be the actual favorite, but mathematically they are in control.

Came right out of Gary Bettmans' mouth. "Barclays isn't an option." So when he comes out and says, "Nassau Coliseum isn't an option.", well.....

Its been seesawing all season. They go back add forth from losing games 1-0 and 2-1 to having 5-4 shootouts. Outside of the 13 of 14 point stretch they can't seem to get it all working at the same time.

Are you comparing MSG and Barclays? not just the rink but the players and their families amenities? Rangers mostly live in West Chester if not in Manhattan which is an easy commute, but a lot of Rangers live in Manhattan. There isn't a Islander that lives in Brooklyn.
The game day skates were changed because they hated it, Brooklyn is a pain in the ass to get to.
I'm gonna believe Dreger on this one instead of some Yahoo!'s on HB Up_State.

I'm glad I did not listen to this interview. I have no interest hearing about this BS. I'm just not going feel sorry for players having to travel to the Barclay's. Maybe they should live in Brooklyn then or get a 9-5 job and see what kind of commute many people have everyday?

When these players become owners they can complain about the building or commute. It's not their money having to build a new arena and risk taking a big loss.
