I’m not staying up for this one which means they’ll win 6-2. Both Komarov and Ladd with three each. You’re welcome.

Fantastic. Now that I know the outcome I don't have to watch.

Let's go Islanders!

Have you looked at Lou's history with not waning to play younger players?
- JimmyP


Barry and Lou sure seem to be on the same page in terms of playing vets. Barry is the much better coach but he seems to have the same anti young player vibe that Ted Nolan had.

A lot of coaches do and I understand the thought process but there has to be a little more bend it imo.

It's true Cpt. So many coaches just want to play the vets. This is fine if you have vets getting the job done. There seems very little bend with Lou and Barry.

Lou brought credibility to the organization. That credibility brought in Troz. I'll take that over Snow, Crappy and Weight - even if it means young players sit.

It's not even close Jimmy we take Lou and Barry. Isles still need to start working younger talent into the lineup regardless of who is in charge.

Insta-summary: Lou doesn't like unproven players.

Now you're up to speed.

Well the good news is that I won't have to stay up and watch these pathetic losers choke on their own Richards the entire time they're on the west coast

Amen. I'm setting a hard stop at 11. They're already trying to make it look like Christ has been resurrected in the form of a backup goaltender for the Canucks

Next goal is going to be the one that decides it for me. They lose tonight and I'm probably not watching for awhile though and ok so I guess Eberle scored great I'm staying up
