Good luck to him - thought he was doing a pretty good job, but what do I know.

4:00 pm UPDATE: Katie Strang of Newsday confirms this story. Katie cites a source revealing that Jankowski learned yesterday that his contract would not be renewed by the Islanders. She says the open position will not be filled. Garth Snow will have added responsibilities.


SNOW SHOULDN'T HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITIES

This is bad. Katie Strang also reported that Janks position will not be filled and that Snow will fulfill most of his duties. Organization becomes more and more clueless by the day.

Like I said MONEY.

PENNY PINCHING.
The spot will NOT be filled.

Go ahead, someone please tell me THIS one isn't about money?

What a joke of an org we've become and continue to be under this owner.
Yet I have to continuously read fellow posters whine and bitch about why they're staying away because this board is negative.
This franchise we love continues to be run like a circus. THAT'S WHY!

:thumbsdown:

But we also discuss other things and have fun too, so please contribute.
Thank you.

:D

Dude - Layoff the Moulson thing...this is fairly common for RFA's and have no doubt he will get signed.

Are they serious?

Snow will be scouting director as well as GM?

So Jersey has Lou L and David Conte probably the best at both positions in the business and we have................"Mr. Underrated" doing both.

Soon, Cholly will ask Garf to take a cut in salary and he'll do scouting himself. He still wants that Summo wrestler to replace Rolly and DP in goal!!

As first reported by @ChrisBottaNHL, the Isles have let Ryan Jankowski go. I'm guessing he won't be out of work for very long.    11 minutes ago  via web 


on a side note, I also agree...not worried about Moulson NOT being signed. He'll be an Islander.
If all the ther shyte never happened with our org under Wang's ownership...something like this could warrant a "I'm sure there's a logical explanation for this.."

There is none...this is all about saving money.

BTW
I just got a copy of the updated beverage menu for the Coliseum this year...

I can hear the Kool Aid types now - Janks isn't needed as NYI are through with the high draft picks. Once we get Kovy etc. we'll be picking 24th next season anyway.

I can only assume this was referring to my post. I never said I was staying away nor did I continuously wine and bitch. This was one of the reasons why I have not posted. I do not wish to get in a pissing match but wish for people to actually read what I had posted before making such a rant. I never said that I enjoyed the way the team is being ran. If I took this post out of context and it was not directed at me, Then I do apologize.

The next time I hear about how Wang saved the Islanders and has lost so much money and is giving Snow free hands to spend I'll stick my hand through the computer and choke the idiot.

DiPi, no need to take anything personal, as there are many steve could be referring to. You add your thoughts, he adds his, I'll add mine, it's what makes this whole place work.
;)

As far as Jankowski, I have to agree they look at it as a way to trim some payroll, regardless if it hurts them in the long run. You know the old saying, penny wise pound foolish, and this is a perfect example of the Islanders doing just that. Seems cheapo to me.

And 19, I know you know how this will hurt. Picking in the top 5 doesn't take a genius or even real knowledge of what's out there. Where we will be hurt is in the Matt Martin type signing when a talent like that is spotted in the 5th round. That's when you need a good scouting staff.

Steve, I think this is your cue for a photoshop of Garth juggling his hats of GM, Asst GM, Director of amatuer scouting.
