I don’t remember him ever being that kind of player in fact my fondest memory of him was watching Okposo beat the ever loving piss out of him when he was on the Pens

When we played the Pens in the playoffs after getting throttled by them in game one. It was unusual for Okposo I just remember Niskanen’s face had blood pouring out of it.

Wow 71% of the athletic writers picked the isles to win the series. Doesn't mean poop but whens the last time the isles were picked over a team like that?

That may have been KO's best moment as an Islander. He did not play enough like a power forward. Would have been interesting to see what he could have done with Barry coaching.

Yep we lost the series but it was a good one. I missed the last game because I was in Punta Cana and couldn’t find a feed with about ten Pens fans that my wife and I unfortunately made friends with hahaha. I have a feeling this series is going to be a lot like that one... Minus the outcome of course...

That’s when Capuano threw in Marty Reasoner the “playoff warrior” as he called him for game one after being a healthy scratch for god knows how long who then got victimized for all five goals in a 5-0 loss. If I remember correctly he was directly responsible for all five somehow? Oh man Capuano he was sooooooo bad.

It’s certainly one of my best memories of him. It turned the tide a bit in that series even though we lost. The team responded after that fight and made it a series.

You cannot forget it because it was rare we saw those moments from KO.

So bad and coached for Snow for how many years? Which makes Snow equally as bad or worse. Thanks God for the new Ownership and regime running the team.

Absolutely. I miss hating other teams. It’s been so long since we’ve been relevant. I hope to hate every team in the east again over the next several years. Hatred comes from playoff hockey...well and losing your star player in free agency 😭😭😆😆

Think its a toss up. Both teams looked good. Should be a fun series to watch since I don't give 2 (frank)s who wins

tough to figure. flyers big name scoring dried up. isle scoring more than usual. if both offense are going, it could be an exciting series, but isle D and G makes the diff imo
