I wish I could enter the Islanders contests they have... but NO Canadians are allowed.

As soon as I read the title, I knew to skip the blog and go straight to the comment section. Who gives a s**t about where some stupid contest or commercials or some town's designation? Does it really matter? The Isles are in a dogfight for their season right now, without arguably their best d-man and coming off points in three straight following the ASG. That should be the topic, not some contest or promotion unrelated to the Isles.

Couldnt agree more my friend. I was hoping to see something in regards to Hamonic injury and what the Islanders are going to do. Then I saw the American flag and was like hmmm let me check this out and then I read the article and could not beleive what I read

Cap says he is sick... They will reevaluate later today if he will be ok for tomorrow.

Paranteau and Hamonic?? ARGHH I just want to get to the .500 mark already! We had a chance against Buffalo and blew that

Gotcha

NHL Channel first reported that TH had surgery to repair a broken nose. They later changed that to Facial Surgery! I know the nose is part of the face. But maybe its a bit more serious than simply a broken nose. Two weeks is a long time to be out with a broken nose. Maybe there is a broken cheek or orbital bone also. Just speculation on my part. I just hope TH is resting comfortably and returns soon.

Please Lord let PA be okay. You know if he doesn't play who will be stepping in his place. I am not a religious man, but for this I will pray for PA to recover.

I would not touch that guy with a ten foot hockey stick, he is another Euro kid that thinks he can play when he wants to,,

KHL is the place for him, I hear you can even smack the coach around if you want..

Ness is... cant wait to see him!!

That is why he is here. All our defenseman with the team right now are Physically over matched so of course he was the right pick

I would only take a kid that wants to play hard every night. If you are fortunate enough to play in the NHL, play like it could be your last game. That is why contracts should be 2 years. Players always seem to play their best in their final year of their contract, so 2 year max. Play great and you will get another 2 years.

I will say Rolston looked pretty good up in the box with Snow.

Well then back to losing we go! Any one else notice this team plays a lot better without him

You know, teams should put up Web Cams,,,,so the fans could check out the practices...No different than allowing reporters in. The news will still get out.
