Solid game by Walter by the way. Kid has some wheels and decent instincts

uh-oh, that means he's going back down, or going to get injured.

Amazing that Sim scored the equalizer. I am glad with the 1 point instead of 0. Baby steps... get to OT, and lose... next get to SO... after the Islanders learn to play equalizing hockey, then they can try to bring home W's.

Witt is hurt and it was a poor play by Weight.

Witt is still too slow. He's certainly not part of the answer to winning.

I sold it all, retired and moved to Fabulous Las Vegas!

didn't go last night...still recovering, but was able to watch on versus..must say that was one of best 3rd periods i've seen the Islanders play all season. And he Ovechkin goal, basically..what can you say? he's a superstar, and we suck. I just want to say c'mon isles..make it worth showing up to the games man.. :bag:

For once we came back and had a decent 3rd period.
But how rare has this been?

Was this the environment, the frustration environment for Josh Bailey to develop in?
looked worn down and a bit over matched the last couple of games.

Great game by Streit, Meyer and Park. Same for Weight until that OT miscue.
On to the next one.

We can get a 1st rounder for him, I know it. He's still under contract for a couple more years, and that just makes it better. He is pretty much useless in our system. Philly can use him.

The "system" makes the slow even slower.

And add Comrie to the group that should go. I don't ever want to see that crybaby wear our colors again. We suck with you, we suck without you. Good riddance.

nice comeback...very exciting..too bad we fell short in OT to Alex the Great.

The next 4 are winnable...even for us...I think the small positive they take from this game will translate into 4 straight wins. That 3rd period will spark a turnaround :thumbsup:

why would we want a turn around for? we are going no where fast. It has finally hit me, we really do suck. Give me the draft picks..bring up all the youngsters, ready or not...let 'em learn up here...its why gordo is here..to teach.


us going back on some sort of winning streak, will only make us suffer in the long run...tampa is doing there allstar performance of trying to be the worst team in the history of the nhl...we need to suck worse than them..

depends on whom he's dealt to. A team like Pitt that is desperate for D will give up a 1st because

1- they always overpay...see the Hossa deal last year
2- their first round pick is virtually a second round pick because of how late it will be in round 1.

A team like Boston that isn't in such desperate need of blueline help won't pay as much, but I can see a team like Pitt or Washington going with a 1st or 2nd rounder.
I miss these :cup: :cup: :cup: :cup: and want more of them
