Wow. Laine and Roslovic traded for Dubois. Big fuckin trade.

Hush. Don't. Someone's understandably quite crusty about it right now.

I’d be too. Dubois is obviously a good player (plus a 3rd) but Laine has already scored 40 and Roslovic has a ton of potential.

Wow. Laine and Roslovic traded for Dubois. Big fuckin rape.

FYP

I’ll just add, the Isles getting Trotz is still their biggest addition since they traded for Goring.

I may come back home to the Isles.  Clearly, i never should've left.

This is a sport, more than any, where good coaching influences a franchise more than anything else even talent. It only took 30 something years and the selling of the franchise to figure that out.

I suffered through the awful years in the 80s, consistently losing to Gretzky/Messier. I suffered the Selanne trade.  I suffered losing my franchise to Arizona. I suffered Mike Milbury and the numerous dumbfuck trades the Isles made. I suffered Claude Noel. I'm continuing to suffer Paul freaking Maurice.....and now we just gave away a generational player.


I've had it.

How about a shutout for ole Wedger!

How about that. I put it on up 2-0 and could believe he was in goal again, against a good team. I don't know how long this will last but I'll take it.

He has a wide open opportunity with both Blackwood being on the COVID list and the status of the roster given Crawford's retirement to absolutely seize a backup job in which he'll be getting a lot of run.

He was horrible Thursday as was largely the rest of the team. Last night was a tremendous bounce back effort. Hughes and Smith continue to play out of their minds. It's very encouraging considering they're missing Nico, Bratt and Vats.

I still have expectations of being a seller at the deadline this year (bye Palms), but freak it, let the good times roll if they can keep this going.

I didn't realize Blackwood was on the COVID list, I wondered why Wedgewood was playing again, that would explain it. My interest in hockey is basically if the Devils are playing I'll watch it, good or bad. If the Knicks are on at the same time it's a matter of how the games are going.

How many penalties we gonna take? That's the second one on Subban in a row.

Him and Severson have been awful tonight. Severson's been awful all freaking season.

Hell of a way to get back into this though.

I picked a good night to be tired as hell and fall asleep. Both my teams excrement the bed late and got beat.

Slick Nik Ehlers has a share of the NHL scoring lead.  Maybe we don't need Laine after all.
