I know you're not a fan, but he is a serviceable 6/7th defenseman.

I’ve always said he was exactly that and a decent one at that. My problem was him being played in a top 4 role and being signed for too long and too much.

Is it wrong that I kinda hope he does?

I don’t see why? Whoever plays best should get the time. I liked aho’s game but right now Hickey is looking steadier. That could be more a product of the entire team is playing better though...

Then we agree. I don't like the contract, but I like having him as a call up option.

Bailey!!

Anyone else shocked Bailey didn’t pass it there?

Maybe I reverse jinxed Bailey and Beauvillier?

The way Aho and Hickey look we don’t need to add a depth defenseman. That’s huge.

Yes, you have:

A tremor in the force. As though thousands of jaws dropped simultaneously, followed by cheers. Josh Bailey scored????

I have never seen that he just passed it right to bailey

Yes, you have:

But I won’t say I don’t.

Had to receive a primary assist from the opposing goalie, but yes. Yes he did.

Seven game win streak, only 10ga during that stretch. He's only going to get better. Nice response to a flat effort on Thursday for the boys.

Had to go to east Rockaway today for one of my daughters soccer games. Cross island was a parking lot, but I digress. Went by the new arena, it’s looking sweet! Can’t wait. Only three hours door to door for me.

Still watching the game but they are humming tonight one of the best games in awhile and if del colle can chipmin like the last two it would be huge for his confidence and the team

We need his save % every game from now until he retires

I don't think so. Same no. of points, first tiebreaker is games played. Isles have played more.

Wahlstrom is already one of my favorites on this team love his game and he will mix it up

It was a bad time to drop the gloves, but I can't blame him. He held his own and showed he won't be a push over.

Yea I still like him also Hickey looked good out there maybe they don't need a depth d man as much as now as he has a lot of experience and can still play
