I just spent the weekend with Scott over at Sesame Place.

He is living the married life now and has a one-year-old.

And I have a 9 and 7-year-old... all born after my original run.

Time flies.

yeah. We were talking at that point and wanted to see how things were on the chitchat. But also wanted to play coy because final decision wasn't until Friday night, and then I was away.

I can't believe it's been over 9 years.

Plus... to be honest, it's time to be a touch more comedic and entertaining. On Twitter and solo, it tended to get too insular and snarky. Maybe my own reaction to items on ice and with fans/opinions... so that needed to end also.

Its doesnt matter who's opinion is right or wrong, bottom line is that back-n-forth banter is what's best for business ...

From the day they let former NYR Cup Winning GM Neil Smith go to hiring NJD Cup Winning GM Lou, Isles fans have had a decade plus Frustration Sandwich. McPhee was here for shorter than a beer and no one minds in the desert. You could say Snow did everything but win while Charles dreamt of building the Lighthouse Pyramid like the pharaos of old. Like the biblical old Joshua he sang and probably went. Goalies come and goalies go, but sometimes they stay and form pairs of three or Snowmath. Where the horses now run, the Tavares Thouroughbred may stay and get a lot of bread or become the Toast of Toronto and leave Snow melting like the summer ice at Barclay's.

Prove it by giving me your stance on Anders Lee. Should the Islanders keep and extend him, or trade him for defensive help and depth?

Depends on how many people have tattoos of him next to their unmentionables.

Why a person wouldn’t want such a thing is beyond me. The mere sight would surely send their better halves into a frothy lust.

I expect this Fishsticks off season to be far more interesting than the 2018-19 regular season.

IF Isles can get Ilya Kovalchuk... and thanks to Lou, they do have a shot *(and had NO shot with Garth)... then they could because...

1. Great goal scorer, but they can't afford to sign him when he comes due

2. There are some items in his game that aren't great.

3. Have key needs that are costly that even two 1st round picks won't fill. Especially via getting a top 4 dman
