I hope we don't have to see Reasoner for the rest of the year (unless we clinch early) - mighty13duck
I don't want to see him if we clinch early or otherwise. I don't want to see him ever again. Joensuu has been playing good. He jeeps playing the way he has he'll start scoring some goals. No Boulton and no reasoner. Time for this team to move on from these guys. These games are too important.
Good news is they do not have Gaborik. That guy scores every game against the Isles. Its unbelievable - mighty13duck
Yeah. He was a killer. You could always count on him to score on us. Glad he's gone. I hope these guys cone out and play a hard game. I hate when there is a lot on the line and the teams hold back.

What are you thinking? Rangers going to cone out strong or are they going to play a little tentative? - Cptmjl
I think both teams come out flying, no excuse not to. Momentum swings will be extreme as always in these games. Gotta survive the first ten minutes. I would not be surprised to see the Isles score first & we answer right back.
We'll see, cant wait. Maybe you guys will see my Rag$ fAce on the screen, few rows back of the net tonight. Great seats!
What do you guys think?
I think our 2 line , 3 line, 4 line is better than the there 2, 3, 4.
How does our first line compare to there first line? - 2raven2
Any line with Tavares on it matches up to any line just about in the NHL. The weak parts are the wingers. Moulson needs to have a good game and get back to scoring those dirty goals Boyes is the weak link. He's just not good. As far as the other lines the way they've been playing they match up and IMO are better in a lot of areas than the rangers lines. In happy with our team, they've turned a corner. We will drop a game eventually and it might even be this one but if I was going to pick a winner tonight it'd be us and that's not a homer pick. Our team is rolling and playing with confidence. It's hard to beat that.

Personally, nothing should change. Leave the 20 on the bench that have been there for the last couple of weeks to do the job they've been doing against every other team in the league. No need to tinker with anything, add any agitators or fighters, etc.

#isles fans should take a good look how players used at Bridgeport to figure on likely scenario next season: Strome on Nelson's wing

With Grabner on the other wing. Nino on the first line with JT and Moulson, our current 2nd line as the third line and Martin-Cizikas-McDonald on the 4th and we're pretty scary.

If anyone's going to the FDNY/NYPD hockey game tomorrow and wants to partake in the best tailgate in the Coliseum parking lot, hit me up. I'll be there between 9 and 10 tomorrow.

I'm not 100 percent sure if we should bring strome up next year. I'm thinking to stack up Bridgeport and start winning games down there.
Lee-Nelson-strome sounds like a winner to me!
The only change for the islanders would be adding niño and subtract Boys.
What do you think?
