Louzer will inform all about 30's status when louzer feels like it. Maybe in between naps or two minutes before season opener.
I'm beginning to think top lines should be 13, 14, 11 duclair and 29, 21, 7 tysplakov. Leaving overpaid 44, 27, first round busts 10, 26, 4th line regular 53, 32, 20, and useless 18 to mishmash two sorry bottom two lines out of.
And i am sure louzer has the three, five, and seven year deals waiting for soon to be age 33 29 to sign with ntc which will take 29 right thru the heart of painful isle re-build to come. Asset manag'mt is another course louzer failed to master.
Gil considering that sorokin has not been in camp or played in any pre season games it's fairly obvious to conclude that he will be out 6 weeks
I think Hodgberg was signed because Sorokin got hurt. Lehner is still out there…What does "Unfit to play" mean?? If there's any team that could get Robin back on track, it's the Islanders. A little off-topic, I hope Roy had some tough words for the players after blowing another game in the 3rd period. I pray he can get these guys to play a full 60.
Man, If we can get Wally playing his absolute best and Tsyplakov playing like he was in his last season in the KHL, Maybe they can find themselves flanking Nelson. I'm aware it's a LOOOOONG shot but, I'd love for that to happen
I just had my 9th spine surgery so I’m praying he’s okay not even to play just in his life in general
Happy Birthday Gary Howatt!!!
I don’t mind him missing games early in season I just hate this clok and danger bull saying he miss 2 practices and have not one worry. Just be honest say he taking it really slow and might miss some games why is that so hard for the team! Makes it seems worse by lying about timetable
anyone who thinks this is going to be a sorokin bounce back vezina type year is deluded ….at best we see him give it a whirl part time this season and hopefully not go in and out onto the IR. back surgery is no joke. i hope that they don't push him too much and honestly best to just let him rest this whole year…and rehab…..this year if they push too fast he's done permanently and will never return to full potential.
Good morning team! Gil, Sorokin's health and recovery should be what is most important. Let him miss as much time as he needs to feel 100%. The thing I have the problem with is the lack of information from the Islanders. I don't understand what the big secret is. Maybe our glorious GM has a reason for what he does, or doesn't do. Frustrating is the word that comes to mind. Everyone, have a great day today and enjoy the game tonight. See you all again tomorrow. Until then.. Let's Go Islanders!!
SoroKing will be put on long term injury list which will easily get islanders tons of cap space. I don’t want to rush A goalie with back surgery. You need it even a year to recover
Good 🌄 Gil how are you? They shouldn't rush Sorokin back because he might injure himself and be out for 50 games or even the rest of the sesson. Brock Nelson is concentrating on the upcoming coming season, and not his contract. They've got to he secretive knowing the press they'll take things out of context. Barzy, Bo, and Duke 👀 good against The Rangers. HAPPY 🎂 GARRY HOWATT, aka the toy 🐅. He was there from very beginning, had lots and lots of spice. Took on Dave Schultz and did more than hold his own, and could put the puck on the net, too. Yesterday I said that a one time Islander got some advice from his late father. Don't do a job to get it done, do a job to get it right. That was Trots father who told him that, and it stayed with him for the rest of his life. Hear from you later, Gil and LET'S GO ISLANDERS.
Thats great i just bought season tickets
Hi Gil! Hope you’re well. I know why they kept the Sorro injury from a business perspective. This is beginning to feel uncomfortable with Sorro. Varlomov and Kincaid can carry the load till December I think but without Sorro—not sure if we can make it. Varly is up there. I like Kincaid—-lots of experience but if Varly is out—don’t think Kincaid can carry the load that long. I agree Gil—-let Sorro come back when he’s 💯 ready. Hopefully we can hang around!! I think Duclair has made our 1st line complete—-they were lights out! Typ looked real good I feel. Had hoped Dufor and or Maggio could have made it with Matty and Clutter presumably gone. Lastly—-Mayfield will have to face the music with Rempke—-that will be ugly. If we’re gonna play that way—-expect retaliation—-I can’t see Rempke and Carrick ok with what happened. It was an open ice hit but that guy has plenty issues and maybe it wasn’t smart to target Chytil—-I don’t know Gil—-take care
Thanks for the update on Ilya Gil. LGI
When you Lou gave his original comment on Sorokin, my immediate thought was “he’s going to miss the first month of the season”. Whatever it is I just hope they don’t overwork Varly
