Tom Wilson is 6.4’ 240 lbs so not sure the “smaller” guys have dealt w more than that. With that said, I agree they can handle themselves and will be aware of his presence on the ice. Regarding the fourth line, I don’t think swapping Ross for Mm changes much of the current chemistry. Two years ago and longer, yes definitely. Just don’t see them containing and hemming teams in their zone like their glory days. We’ll see what $5m trotz decides.

Bet dollars to donuts that if Ross is even in he’s one the 3rd line.
It does change the Chemistry on the 4th line.
When those 3 are not together it just isn’t as effective. Don’t know how you can say that with the struggles the 4th line had when MM left to Toronto, Cal and Casey were just not as effective. Even since they have been reunited, an injury of either player and the line isn’t the same. Sorry we will agree to disagree on the chemistry and in turn the effectiveness the 3 have together.
There’s a reason 5 million $$$ Barry said that line is the Islanders identity line.
Just my opinion of course but yes, we will see what 5 million dollar Barry does

I'd rather they win tonight than have a shot at #1. They don't look like much of a threat to win the cup.

Nope. But it still feels good to see their exit. Something about their failure is so comforting. Not sure why. Anyone remember why we hate that franchise?

Upstate better not do the end zone celly again before the clock ticks zero. No spiking the ball until you cross the goal line.

I will drive up there and Tom Wilson his ass!

Agreed, let that snake play his career without winning what every player wants.

So glad they fire Babcock because he wanted the to play a complete system defense included and the danglers and flashy boys complained to management

3-0, so glad Toronto can score, but can’t play a lick of defense

I NEVER troll. But I couldn't help myself tonight. Probably wouldn't have, but that Roger Roeper guy coming around was the incentive for me.
