Glad Snow went out and got a sniper at the deadline, maybe Wang didnt want to spend the $$$ while he spends on the Dragons/Hockey in China/Telecasting in Chinese/Anything but Isles player personnel.

Caber, while part of me agrees with you, I think it really comes down to no one wanting our 3rd liners for a push. even with cap we had no way of acquiring a goal scorer. This is bogus, damn, i am just livid. 53 shots no goals. I listened to the game so i cant tell, but can some one tell me we had any decent shots of the 53 that managed to hit anderson.

Nolan is talking about the effort, but lacking the talent, whose job is it to bring in and pay for the talent? I feel that Nolan is a great coach, but something tells me Isles missed the long term opportunity by not improving on that 01-02 team, and then by not improving last years team. How many 2nd shots can an organization get with luck/history/or its fan base?

Just disheartening. Another 50 shot game, but all the shots come from the perimeter and Anderson got great looks at them. Does anyone on this team have the guts to pay the price by going 5-10' above the goal crease and living in the slot? It doesn't seem like it to me. Everyone drifts to the side or next to the goal or behind the net, but no one is willing to pay the price in front.
I miss these :cup: :cup: :cup: :cup: and want more of them

I agree with this post OMG. The DP bashing i don't. Nolan is a great coach and our best asset

MMG your name says everything, reeling from the MM era still. As for Wang, he spends and spends on the Coliseum, probably to improve the real estate value, instead he should concentrate on improving the team which would generate more revenue for him in the end. This team needs an actual hockey person, and by that I mean a seasoned one to turn things around. What would this team look like had Neil Smith not signed the players he did in his brief stint as GM?

Well I was talking about our goalie in this game, on the bright side we have a goalie with over 90% save percentage in a game, thats nice to see.  As we tick down to 3 min it may be the only positive part of this game

Thank God Doobie is in goal :punk: :punk: :punk: :rotflmao:

Yeah...thank god. He's only been tested 5 times the entire game.

Dubie played fine, but let's not make it like it was a Ken Dryden effort out there. IF DP lost this game 1-0 you would both cry about the one goal he let up and how he "needs to steal a game" and :blah: :blah: :blah:

We dominated this game and ran into a red hot goalie, came up short.....still only 4 out with tons of games left.
At the end of the day, it's all about the whiskey, gambling and women !

caber, damn right I still reel from the MM era. That was when I was growing up. unlike most of you I have never really exprienced a good Islander team let alone a cup team. I know nothing but failure from this franchise. And still I love this sport and team, despite always being marginal at best. Also, you are right about Neil smith, he signed witt and sili, poti, etc.. GMG needs to over estimate the market this year and acquire a point producer. He needs to assume that we will have to overpay to get a guy who will atleast score 1 goal on 53 shots.
