This is how the team responds when management does not break them up. The players have zero respect for Wang, Snow, and Cappy and it's hard to blame them.

Zero respect. And zero accountability. True post.

Just stop......you know what i was saying......dont try and catch me on a slip up.

No.. i honestly have no idea what you are saying, thats why im asking.

XxNYIxX

What forwards have?
- Isles316

Not 4 assists and -16 Reasoner. Anyone else.

I was listening on the radio. should Grabner have scored an empty netter? Certainly sounded that way on the radio.

This bumhole rutzgeggef or whatever his (frank)ing name is keeps saying they picked up a point. How does this idiot not know washington is now in 8th and they are right where they (frank)ing started tonight? (frank). I'm going to break something...

Thats all on the coach. He is as bad as it gets. The guy is a fluckin joke. The way he plays Nino, his decisions and timing with the 4th line, not scratching Rolston every f'n game...the list is endless. He needs to go because he is absolutely horrid.

Are they F-ing kidding me? Inexcusable loss. It falls on everyone from the coach down.

Nino has 1 (frank)ing point. Not trying to be a Richard but niño is (frank)ing clueless out there. Give it up on the nino bllpoop. He should be in juniors. Snow (frank)ed that one up, not cap.

Only the NYI decide to dump Billy Jaffe (awesome) and replace him with Butch, thus causing this dips!t Rutt(frank)er and that past dips!t Rob Carlin to conduct interviews.

you're spot on about this.

100% agreed he should be in bport all next season. Not with the Isles. We can't bailey Nino, the Isles can't afford it

This loss was like a big FU from the players to Wang, Snow, and Cappy. You cannot go all year with pretty much the same team and not make one decent trade. As bad as Milbury was he at least never hid and tried to make moves. He did not sit in his office all year doing nothing waiting for the draft.

Exactly right. They have kids like bailey and over the hill vets playing roles that they shouldn't.

You want to blame someone.. Blame okposo for playing like bumhole, and Neilson for never winning a face off and bailey for thinking banking one off cappy instead of the boards is a good idea.

You want to blame anyone? Blame the fact that this team is about 5 players away from being a playoff team. 3 d men and 2 forwards. Blame snow for (frank)ing around with 3 goalies early in the year. Blame milbury for gutting the organization and leaving snow no choice but to go with a long rebuild, blame Wang for not spending and accepting losing, blame snow for hiring capuano who isn't the right coach, blame the players for not showing up every night, blame officiating for shoving it up our ass in more than just a couple games, blame Nassau county, blame the town of hempstead, blame capuano for keeping the lines together all ficking year, blame rolston because he is a poopty person, blame ehrhoff because he can go (frank) himself, blame me for losing my poop tonight and I apologize for yelling, blame comeau for his glorious 0 points,did I miss anything?

Bottom line is, this team isn't ready and games like this are maddening. They are getting closer but don't have the guys to finish out games. Bailey and okposo need to be sent packing. Kyle dogged it tonight and bailey needs a change of scenery. Also, get someone in here that can win a face off.

Yeah but he's a tough player who fights so we can't have him on the islanders.

No room for guys with heart on this team. Not sure how Martin slipped through?

Simple. he doesnt drop the gloves to just drop them.. Martin's fights have a meaning.
Big Z, as much as i loved what he brought to the team... he dropped the gloves at the most unimportant times. His fights were so few to rally the team or defend a player... Thats why he's no longer here. If not for his face off skills.. he would be a goon.

I'll take Z over many of these stiffs. What are the Isles paying Fran Nielsen for? He is suppose to be the shutdown center. How come he did not help protect a two goal lead?

the fact that wash tied it was all luck. not suprised we lost in OT. they had the momentum.

Observations - Cizakis and Ullstrom fit.
Beautiful goal by bailey and you could be see in his game he was excited to play with skilled players for a change.

Staios is to blame for loss. If he doesnt let them score that first goal, we win easily.

i love the rolstonless isles. wish they had done it 40 games ago.

Like I said, i liked what Z brought to the team, But ownership wants to get away from fighting & his worthless dropping of the gloves sealed his fate.

Frans is not being used in a shut down roll... people can complain about how Nino has been used till the cows come home... But Cappy's misuse of Frans Nielsen this season is criminal!

Maybe ownership can focus on getting rid of the worthless GM and Coach and players then Wang can take care of fighting at the NHL level. Just a crazy idea. It's not the Islander fans problem if Wang was maybe beat up a lot as a kid.

I agree on the coach & a few of the players... im still backing the GM.

This team is going backwards until we get some defensemen that don't have to hold onto the (frank)ing boards to stand up on their skates.

They chase all (frank)ing night. Minus Travis, there is not one defenseman that makes me feel comfortable when in his own end.

I almost feel guilty that Tavares is wasting the first half of his career here.
