We apparently have a logjam of enough untalented players.

Bring back...PRIDE OF THE ISLAND
is he a younster? does he fit in the "plan"? is he a 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th line player?


how is his work ethic? does he have speed? can he score goals? can he back check?


can he play emergency goaltender? would he be able to disguise himself as a fan and sit in the seats and cheer his team on?


did he go to college? what did he study? can he help the team in the future in the front office? will he have enough money to buy the team and keep them on Long Island?


does he hate the rangers? or hate avery? does he want to be rick dipietro's friend?does he want to be an Islander?

Didn't Tampa JUST TRADE FOR HIM over the summer?

I told you that idiot Brian Lawton wouldn't be a good gm.

Bust as a number one pick and now as a gm.

Picking up Jokinen can't hurt the team... nothing can hurt the team at the moment.

This guy was like the main piece in the trade that sent Brad Richards to Dallas. Tampa truly is a mess.

I don't know why but I feel like I'd rather have their mess than our mess. Really a few nice trades on their part and they can be back in this thing with the talent they do have.

Yeah, I hear ya. Their fans ( the few they might have) turn on the TV and get to watch Lecavalier, St. Louis and Stamkos at least. But that would probably be even more frustrating, to have all that talent on the team, and still stink it up. Similar situation in Ottawa. Goes to show, you can't underestimate the importance of a good defense and strong goalie.

Hopefully things will turn around when DP returns... and all of the defense are replaced by brick walls.
