Wasnt there some article out there that said L and M went around the league and asked other GMs about Snow?

Not sure if this is proof

Whoever posted their ticket rep said how would you feel about snow here but with no power was probably right. Snow can run the vending

Lou to the Isles is the best news we could have asked for. It took years of mediocrity and failure from Snow and Co. and a long overdue upswell of anger from the fans to force change, but it worked. The fact that the Isles and their fans can turn the page (finally) on Snow, on complacency, on mediocrity and a lack of desire to compete is tremendous.

I don’t know what this means for JT, but if he doesn’t want to come back to this organization with Lou running the show then so be it. Let him walk. With Lou in command, I’m far more comfortable with Lou in charge overseeing a potential post -JT era than I would have been with Snow overseeing things.

New arena on the horizon. Lamoriello running hockey operations. Things are actually looking up. I’m optimistic.

Lou to the isles and Garth Snow is fired never to return would have been the best news we could have asked for

Too close to the team. I think he should scout in Iraq.

It’s always about money. Wang didn’t need it as he knew all along he could move to urban Brooklyn and pump the value.....the same amount he basically said he was losing per year. Not a coincidence.
L and M however are about to break ground on a major project and will need the fans support via tickets sales, merch, etc.
I think this year when the ticket reps called the fans there was a horrific response. That’s what ultimately made this happen.

- kindlyrick


That would be me. Told mine to give me a call back when L &M get their S together and fire that fat #$@&. This is the next best thing. I'm wondering if he will bring Hunter with him and make him GM. Then, a new coaching staff. I like the sound of all this.

Yea well it's awesome also there's this
I wonder if Lamoriello’s presence makes the Islanders a darkhorse suitor for Ilya Kovalchuk. Between Lou there and Don Waddell in Carolina, would not be surprised if people who know Kovalchuk are the most interested.

Wonder if Lou and Chia will have a special relationship like Garth and Chia had?

- ses111


Lou calls over to the mail room....
"Hey Garth, I need you to stop licking the stamps for Sparky's fan mail and earn your paycheck.
I don't speak Chirelli's language but apparently you have that gift. We need Nurse and I want Clutterbuck and that disgusting mustache off my team.
Thanks Garth. And remember... who's my good little boy?"

They should also make him wear this hat as part of his official uniform:

Yeah, but they were pretty much spot on except for the chance that JT goes to the Leafs.

I'm just happy the Isles jokes should be coming to an end soon. Argument can be made Isles can now battle the Devils for the best front office after the Yankees among NY sports.

I think you're jumping the gun. Let's see how the front office is structured and if Weight is still the coach. Lou is great news, but the Isles have kicked me in the teeth too many times.

Remember we are talking about teams like the Mets, Jets, Knicks, and Nets. Lou is better in his sleep than most of those teams and I like the Mets and Jets. I mentioned last week would be interesting if Weight get replaced and Gross from Newsday mentioned it's no longer a certainly Weight comes back.

Let’s also see who he brings in scout wise because the drafting of this team under snow has been a major failure.

I know this is directed at me so ill respond. Always trying to turn the screw unnecessarily . Quite funny and exhausting at the same time. You have a tendency to exaggerate a point while fabricating someone else's to make your own point. This is nothing new but it's tiring man it really is. It's like you want to debate about nothing for hours. You're like a woman.
