I have been over Tavares the day he left. He is on another team his child hood dream good for him. I mean the islanders have been fine without him and that’s all that matters. If we meet in the playoffs it will be fun but let Johnny go

I use SeatGeek, personally. Speaking of, I'm flying out to Denver tonight and going to Avs/Jets on Thursday. Literally just printed my tickets 5 minutes ago

I've used Vivid Seats too. I would look for tickets but don't buy then go back later and see I would get a 10% off offer. I think sellers list the same tickets on all the sites, usually same asking price, so I purchase via whoever has the lowest "service" fee.

Someone else told me Vivid offered them a 10% discount because they put the tickets in their cart but never checked out. Seems like that's the way to do it

At some point we might need a new coach in B-port. Some very good prospects seem to go to sleep in B-port. I understand turning them into solid 2 way players but when guys like Bellows, Ho-sang, MDC... go years in AHL with zero success I start to become skeptical of Mr. Thompson. ... but wtf do I know.

There was a 120 dollar handling fee so I used Ticketmaster and spent the same on good seats 6 rows back if I cant go I'll resell them but my kid would freak out on me if I didn't take him

Hockey News has Islanders 4th in rank of prospects. Funny part is Toews is listed as their 6th best.

I would love to hear how Bailey break away wasn't a hook. they call that every time..

not like he would have scored on the penalty shot .. or power play but I would love to know.

He's 5' 8". Hopefully, he's got skills to compensate.

Almost no undrafted college free agent is going to be ready to step into the NHL

PPG player in his senior season, better than a PPG player last year. Can't find much on him though. He's probably a bottom-six option or AHL depth. There's not usually much to get excited about regarding these undrafted UFA signings, but it's good that they're adding quality depth to the organization. Building a successful AHL program is important too.

Looks like he's got a decent shot. Like you said, he could be a quality depth signing.

This of course comes as no surprise to any of us regulars. BTW, can you post the tweet so the rest of us can fully enjoy this moment?
