Crazy to think that they had this in their hands and just screwed it up although a winning culture just isn't in this teams make up and again for me it starts from the top.
We have a pretty easy schedule from here on in. The way the team has gone this year, I can see them stringing a 4 or 5 game unbeaten streak( in regulation ). If This gets them into the playoffs, it'll be the worst unbeaten streak ever... unless Gath still gets fired after the season, regardless of playoff results. And if that's the case, go Isles go !!!!

Don't forget you were right about JT being overrated and can't skate - nyisles7
Never said he couldn't skate and let's be clear I said he's overrated by some in this fan base which he most definitely 100% is. This is how BS spirals out of control on this thread.

i love JT but he not anywhere near the McDavid or Crosby class nor will he ever be.
And I agree if Matthews is this good as rookie, imagine him in few years.
All I care about is can isles make playoffs. Now enters another team. Carolina could very well get the last spot. they are most deserving of it. they have been playing lights out.

If Carolina had better goaltending, they would have been a scary team this year.

Here's Doug Weight on Pulock: "“We certainly know how he’s playing and it’s not like we haven’t discussed him over the past few weeks...

"... When we were winning games, we were missing guys and our D was performing because of that continuity of playing every night..."
Arthur Staple @StapeNewsday
"...I’m not sure one guy, even on the power play, can make that sort of difference. We’ll have eight healthy D on Thurs. who all expect..."
Arthur Staple @StapeNewsday
"...to be in the lineup and have earned the right. These aren’t easy decisions. And listen – I think Ryan is progressing awesomely well..."

"...I love him. It (a call-up) is not going to happen now, but things can change."

This team is so fken stupid it's painful. A top tier talent with a 100 MPH slap shot is not going to help your PP?!?! Why do these dopes not understand how a top prospect changes games. We have forever played "depth signings" instead of Talent... it's just friggin absurd!.
RIP this season. was hoping the last game of the year was gonna be important and got tickets last month. oh well. - batteryjackson
My call is it will matter in a... If the Isles win this game and 2 other teams don't get a points... scenario. (and No I don't think they are getting in the playoffs).

our Easy Schedule is against teams that have poopty records but are playing well lately.. (Flyers, Canes, Sens..) We will lose at least 2 of these games and that is enough to say buh bye.
Neither is Detroit. Remember when I was getting heat for that beginning of season.
Sad actually. Last year at the Joe. 25 years of consecutively making playoffs since 1990. WOW.
I guess Franzy need a chance of scenario but instead he part of a bad memory.
yes, that is just what we need another top defensive prospect that can rot in B-port while we play some J/O that Garth pulled out of retirement. - niteislander
I believe the player is a forward. Mike Vecchione is a center.
If we miss the playoffs (which we will) we need to trade this pick. This draft totally sucks and there is no reason to draft this year. WE have enough young players who we will not give a chance to in the NHL. I say we trade the pick along with a lets say a Nelson and other pieces and get some one in here. This is the move that needs to be made. Will it?? Nope cause if we are still dealing with GArth Snow it will never happen but we need to.
