I wish that was saying Matt Martin tees will be available in place of Gillies. The kid can skate, handle the puck, and put a dent in your face. |

I wish Martin, Koskinen and a few others, perhaps even Petrov would have been there. But maybe this is how this Isles braintrust feels they can build up a players (Gillies) resume of accomplishments. I thought they would have learned with that "NICKNAME" epic failure last year. Guess not. Tavares there is a no brainer. Moulson, probably one of the most approachable NY area Isles players ever. Another no brainer. But Gillies? Eh, no big deal. Only if you're like me and see it as a sign of the same direction. The same direction that has seen Tambellini get a 1 way deal to last years enforcer joke mentioned earlier. etc etc etc Can't wait to see how this team standup for each other this year and has a pack mentality. You know like REAL NHL teams that are competitive and don't allow ANYONE to push their guys around. Gillies, a cement head who cannot handle more than 3-4 minutes per game will be forced down our throats as this years version of the "NICKNAME".

Good news to anyone that cares. I'll be gging the Islanders from the press box this year as one of the newest members of the blog box. It took 3 years to make it in, so I am determined to make it count. As such, if there is anything I can do for any of you guys with my new role I will do my best. Please be reasonable though. I'll be interviewing players after the games that I'm there, so if you have questions for them I can pass them through (as long as they aren't "Why do you suck" types of questions). I"ll also be making videos from the fans POV of team fans so if you'd like to put your 2 cents in on whatever team related topic is hot at the time, let me know. I'd be happy to interview most of the people here. I'm not sure how to put smileys in videos though, sorry Led Zep... |

GREAT NEWS!!!!!! You deserve it John. You certainly know more about the game than most of em and from what I've seen from your clips, you have great production sense. Please, whatever happens, don't ever let any of it go to your head and change...I know you won't. I'm going to change the title of this thread now. Congrats!!!!

Thanks Webb20. Any chance I can get a quick preseason interview with you? And I was wondering too, if the link I have to this forum on the top of my site brings in any traffic here. |
