The Clutterbuck and Cizikas signings really fit the fourth line mindset that you put them out there after a goal scored for or against to set the tempo of the game. The idea was this is a physical team that would wear down the opposition. Unfortunately the only things getting worn down are the team itself, the fans patience, players looking to play elsewhere and whatever you can add to the list.

Noel, it's not quite accurate to say Nino played "the entire season" on the 4th line with Reasoner and Pandolfo. I recall him getting a shot on the top line with JT, but maybe that only lasted a couple of games?

Having said that, I voted for the mishandling of the Nino situation anyway. I am convinced that Snow allows his personal feelings to enter into too many situations ........ to the extent that they take precedence over the good of the team. This seems like a perfect example. Snow heard grumbling from either Nino or his agent and decided to punish Nino by banishing him to the AHL with no end in sight.

Nino for Clutterbuck is down right dumb, u dont trade a possible top 6F for a bottom 6F when team lacks talent

Agreed. Nino demanded a trade, however, so it's unclear if Snow could have done better. Making a trade under duress is the worst possible trade scenario. However, I blame Snow for mishandling Nino with Cappy getting honorable mention.

I believe it was two games one of which was against the Caps which he scored his first goal from what I remember.

I think the biggest head scratch to me was how you had him playing limited 4th line min for basically a season, and then he doesnt even get an invite to camp? Top 5 pick should always get a look at camp. TOTAL mishandling.

That would be hysterical but not really I don't really care as long as it gets everyone fired at this point that's all that matters.

Sooo Islanders to do list.

1) Miss playoffs while allowing 300+ goals.
2) Fire useless GM due to step one.
3) Fire clueless coach.
4) Win draft lottery.
5) Hire new competent GM who signs Tavares to an 8x10 extension.
6) Hire competent coach.
7) Draft Dahlin.
8) Trade Flames first for competent top 4 defender.
9) Hold memorial for Clutterbuck and Ladd who disappear during off season.
10) Win Stanley Cup.
