  1. Hey Gil – When it comes to the pre-season I don't pay attention to the final score. So the final 2-0 meant nothing but what did make me happy was the play of Marcus Hogberg especially if Sorokin will be out for longer then a few games because he played calm and relaxed . Next thing was the amount of shots on goal the Islanders had on the Flyers # 1 goalie who also played well but if we had our 1st line I think we would of at least earned a point. The last thing was the play of Maxim Tsyplykov and his ability to get his shot off multiple times during the game and also I'm impressed with the release and accuracy of his shot and the fact he has some size and his age keeps him calm under pressure. I'm pretty optimistic for when the entire team gets on the ice on Opening Night Oct 10th against the Mormons from Utah lol. Lets Go Islanders !!!

  2. positive-11 duclair could be the third wheel winger for 13, 14. 7 typslakov could be line 2 winger for 29, 21. That could give isles two solid top lines.
    The bottom lines are a shitfest of overpaid bums and slugs that shouldn't be on an nhl roster mixed with two first round busts.
    negative-the third tier back-up goaltending past 40 is shaky and unreliable. I'd be worried if isles had to go with a third tier back-up for a long stretch during season if 30 is out for a while knowing 40 can't go every game. Or if both get injured forget about it, isles are cooked. Louzer should give lennox some playing time to see what he can do in pre-season.
    And 21 is a ? mark if he will/can score 30 again going on a hot streak while staying healthy for once.

  3. Engvall is horrific. I don't care how they get rid of him. But dump him before Wally or anyone else! Shane on Lou for the trade & resigning, he knew what this guy was from his time in Toronto.

  4. I guess senile Lou is still in charge. Telling st. Patrick he’s got to play holmstrom on the second line. When we know players like engvall and holmstrom aren’t his cup of tea. He doesn’t belong on the team. Only reason he was called up was because he’s another teachers pet just like mdc. Simon with his 5 points gets the call but iskhakov with two fifty point seasons can’t get a sniff. Smfh let me know when the fossil retires or fn dies.

  5. hey Gil any chance of the Islanders leaving MSG and finding a better TV outlet? I know the game was streamed on ESPN+ but once again if feels like the Islanders are second banana to the landlords the NY Rangers.

  6. Good 🌄, Gil how are you? The Islanders got blanked in Philadelphia last 🌙, but some positive did come out of this, and it is preseason. Marcus Hogberg was solid in goal. Maxim Tsyplakov was solid, too. The 2nd line was impressive. Pierre Engvall could be better; however, it is preseason. They've got The Devils tonight at UBS Arena tonight. Anthony DuClair is living up to his expectations so far. Barzy and Bo, looked good, too. I think Patrick Roy wants his first look at Keith Kincaid just to 👀 what he can do. HAPPY 🎂, CRAIG JANNE. Before I go, I got to tell you, I was 👀 Game 6 Semifinals against Buffalo. The Isles were down 2-0 in the 2nd period. 🏒 Night in 🇨🇦 was broadcasting the game. The broadcaster, either Dick Irwin or Gary Dornhoffer said that Bossy was rather quiet because he hadn't scored a goal. Boss must have had a listening device in his helmet because right after that was said, Boss scored. Hear from you later, Gil, and LET'S GO ISLANDERS.

  7. Thought Hogberg looked great. Very pleased!! Hey Gill Thought u might make reference to sumthin from last night? But maybe I was just making to much of it? But did you think sumthin was wrong with the ice last night? Saw a bunch of guys from both teams blow a tire last night. Lots of guys losing control of the puck or just flat out over skating it. Idk but I thought that played alil bit of a impact on the game? But I guess both teams had to deal with the issue if there was one.

  8. Good morning team! Gil, I have a positive outlook for this season, but reading some of the comments, I see some have doubts about that. I see a lot of positive signs from the preseason games thus far. Hopefully there are spots on the roster for everyone I like right now, but I know that can't be the reality. The players that are on the roster when the season starts, that will be the team I will cheer by butt off for. That being said, everyone, have a great day and wonderful weekend! See you all again Monday. Until then.. Let's Go Islanders!!

  9. No panic, I will judge this team at the end of November. Looking good against the Devils tonight. I would like to see a Storm Line before this preseason is over. Wahlstorm, Holmstorm, Karlstorm, feeble attempt at some humor tonight, i know its strom. 😀 LGI
