Lee hasn't done sht either ... in that game you would not even know he played. Our "captain" didn't hit anyone, didn't shoot, didn't block any shots and was a +/- -2 in the game. He skates like he has a piano on his back too.

He was terrible last night. There. I said it.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve some self flagellation to do.

Incidentally Filip Forsberg is a UFA and has spent some time at winger. Lee Barzal Forsberg would look nice

Forsberg is a sniper, that’s for sure.

Gonna be expensive as all (frank), but he fills a need.

So does a certain player with a surgically repaired shoulder that plays for an unnamed arch-city team. I won't name the player or team because I don't want a certain poster in here.

Fire Lou and shoot Barry into the sun!!! They don't deserve to be here.

100%, totally useless!

Absolutely. They haven't done sh!t since they've been here.

I think having more dangerous options on a line would perhaps keep defenses more honest and create more space for Barzy. Guess we won't know til we find out.
As for where I played: sorry, I learned long ago to not disclose that stuff online given my job role. I made the mistake of providing details of my destinations on another site and was soon pm'd with my identity. That's not happening again. I will say I've skated all over the place. Toured Russia, Sweedan, Finland, spent time with an affiliate. My college is unimpressive. I spent sometime coaching there too, but that wasn't impressive either lol. I got around for a while..

Pretty sure it wasn't the old Yahoo site, although we tried a few times to worm the information out of you. I think you admitted once to having had a cup of coffee in the ECHL? Anyway, they call you guys Secret Service agents for a reason.

You must be talking about Red Enchilada.

Stop, the team was and absolute poop show and in a summer he hired a great coach( who never would have come without Lou) brought in character guys and made the POs year one. After losing JT for nada. Then proceeded to make the ECF the next 2 years.
On top of the success he has brought to the team on the ice he has made the entire organization a well run and once again respected NHL asset.

I can’t understand why some in this fanbase don’t give credit where credit is due

I give him Credit for hiring a GREAT coach and making the playoffs was all on the coach and what he did with players he had,

But what else has LOU done as far as making team better now then when he took over..NOTHING t except coach

Barzal's give aways in that game were glaringly bad.. he was JHS bad in that game. He gave away the puck at the blue line 3 times for an odd man rush the other way. I have not seen him do that in a while... He also had that one play were he just dropped the puck off for the D-man instead of passing it to him.. Very Baileyesque ...

The Power play was doing the same sht again too... the game before they finally scored by throwing the puck at the net with bodies in front and crashing the net. Why do we go back to 25 passes, looking for that perfect play? Passing up shot after shot in good spots with guys in front of the net? it's truly maddening.. they you get dopey Josh out there trying to feather a pass between 3 sticks for zero reason and the puck is going the other way.

by the way.. I might buy a JHS Team Canada jersey to wear to annoy everyone at Isles games.

If only we had Snow as our GM...

So why have a GM then? I mean Barry could have done that with these players or any other players is what your saying and you’re making absolutely no sense.
You should start a re hire Snow campaign

Absolutely. They haven't done sh!t since they've been here.
- Isleshockeyman

Well some may say Barry did it all
