Vitriol may be exactly what this team needs. I've been through enough of these loops on these threads to conclude that the team avoids the bad boy players as opposed to drafting for "character" etc. If you watch enough Isles games you sense that the words Islanders and Situational Game Awareness do not go together. Just like Islander Fans and Standings Race, Playoff Race, Trade Deadline Pickups, Vezina Race and Hockey after Mid April do not play together.

However the words Garth Snow and Waived Goalie or Former Backup Is Now Our Starter do.

Honestly, does JT want to go to any city like TOR where the writers will dissect his game vs here where nary a bad word is said?

BTW have you ever interviewed Butch?

This was very confusing and made my head hurt. Kabanov and ho sang were the bad boy players they took not avoided. Who was a character guy they drafted. Am I misreading this? Worked outside all day no food but many beers

Even more reason to stay on the Ranger thread.

I meant bad boys like a guy who may accidently mouth off and say something bad about his coach and teammates because he's frustrated with losing as opposed to "blame himself". I don't think JHS or Kabanov ever mouthed off about losing?

Sorry if my words were cryptic. Enjoy the brews after a hard days work.

Why do some compare the JT situation to Stamkos...?? Makes no sense when 1 team is far superior than other plus a better organization 2 boot ..

Because they’re both good friends and both for whatever reason told their teams they’re gonna listen to what’s out there.

The best also in response to your post on last thread yea snow will have some influence if he stays as gm. Still believe it all goes through lou, hoping hes given another position where he has no influence on the team. I believe milbury was kept his final year but was in charge of bringing teams from China for that Jr tournament and that was it

You're just paranoid.
